The Emerging Screenwriters Fellowship is designed to provide screenwriters with the tools and support needed to bring their creative vision to life. Our commitment is to identify and empower three writers each year who have started a feature-length film screenplay.

Congrats again to Jeff Evans-Todd, Ali Shahidi, and Jordan Wendzina for being the 2025 cohort.

Through personalized editorial support, mentorship, and access to industry experts, our selected writers are able to elevate their work to the next level.

As part of the program, writers participate in a series of virtual workshops and networking opportunities with leading writers, producers, and key industry figures. These events are specifically designed to provide our writers with the skills, knowledge, and connections needed to become commission-winning script creators.
