OMG poor shark 🦈

in 1915, Shackleton ordered his expedition ship 'Endurance' be converted to a winter station after realising that they would be stuck in an ice floe in the Weddell Sea until the following spring.

For months 'Endurance' drifted northwards whilst stuck in the ice, however by the following spring, when the breaking of the ice began, extreme pressure was put on the hull. The ship was eventually crushed and sank into the Weddell Sea, but not before the crew abandoned ship, sparking an incredible tale of survival.

107 years later, on 5 March 2022, the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust’s Endurance22 Expedition, successfully located the wreck of the 'Endurance'. The ship itself is still in excellent condition and will be left where it is, protected as a Historic Site and Monument under the Antarctic Treaty.

Great opportunity

SOUTHERN PILOTS APPLICATIONS NOW OPEN!
Script to Screen, in partnership with Film Otago Southland, launches an exciting new development opportunity called Southern Pilots, for Otago and Southland based screen creators.

Key Dates:
🗓️ 12 February: Applications open
🧑‍💻 19 February: 5:30 pm application information webinar
⏰ 18 March: 1 pm Applications close
✍️ 21-23 June: 3-day workshop for selected teams

Script to Screen and Film Otago Southland are looking for new and emerging filmmakers with compelling, bold series story ideas suitable for development and viable for future production. Southern Pilots offers both talent and project development for three teams. The teams will have one-on-one advisor sessions and hear from industry speakers over a three-day development workshop, which aims to create outstanding pitch documents to present to potential producer partners and funders.

Southern Pilots kaupapa is to help creatives from Otago and Southland generate IP for local and international audiences. This will, in turn, increase activity in both regions and foster a strong creative network of screen practitioners.

Application requirements, eligibility and submission link can be found through the link here. https://script-to-screen.co.nz/applications-open-southern-pilots/
