Netflix 'FIND' Your Voice Film Competition
Filmmakers compete to have your work distributed online. Netflix and Film Independent
are teaming up to find you, the independent filmmaker! The cash prize includes a $150,000 production grant to make a feature film,
which will be distributed online by Netflix. Josh Brolin is serving as honorary chair and as one of the judges
of the competition, dubbed the "Netflix FIND Your Voice Film
Competition."
The winner will own all rights to his or her film. Film Independent
will mentor the winning filmmaker
throughout the production process and will also screen the winner's
movie at the Los Angeles Film Festival.
In addition to the $150,000 grant funded by Netflix, the winner
will also receive a four-week camera package donated by Panavision,
25,000 feet of Kodak Color Negative Film or 10,000 feet of Kodak
Color Intermediate Film donated by Eastman Kodak Company, up to
$75,000 in dailies and prints donated by Deluxe Entertainment
Services Group, and a digital intermediate package with a maximum
value of $150,000 provided by EFILM Hollywood, a division of
Deluxe.
The competition is open to first-time filmmakers who have not yet
created and publicly screened a full-length narrative feature film
of 70 minutes or more.
There is no fee to apply to the competition,
but a maximum of only 2,000 submissions will be accepted. Full
eligibility requirements, evaluation criteria and an entry
application can be found online at Netflix.com/findyourvoice.
Applications will be accepted through Feb. 19.
