SUMMARY:3rd Annual Native American Feature Writers Lab
DESCRIPTION:We are accepting applications for the third NATIVE AMERICAN FEATURE FILM WRITERS LAB. This is a 10-week program that will take place on-line in late August through late October 2020. The lab is an intensive scriptwriters workshop that prepares Native Americans for writing careers at major film studios and production companies. This program is supported by COMCAST NBCUniversal\, Cherokee Nation Film Office\, the Walt Disney Company\, and Sony Pictures Entertainment. \n“We are thrilled to support another group of Native American writers for this year’s feature film writers lab. Each individual selected will express new\, bold and diverse voices as well as provide a powerful vision as screenwriters.” said Patricia Gomes\, Programs Director\, Barcid Foundation. \nThe NATIVE AMERICAN FEATURE FILM WRITERS LAB is designed to familiarize participants with the format\, characters and storyline structure of narrative feature film.
