Applicants must be nominated by an established
professional working within the film industry. Four writers are selected
to participate in the program each year. Unlike other programs or
fellowships that rely on open submissions, we seek out deserving
nominees through industry recommendations, consulting with producers,
festival programmers, screenwriters, filmmakers, Colony alumni, studio
executives, industry journalists and film schools. We seek writers with
distinct perspectives, strong on-the-page voices, and a proven
commitment to their craft who have already laid the groundwork for their
early careers. All genres and budgets are welcome, but the writing and
storytelling should take risks in both form and content.
Any writer interested in applying
should contact the Colony at the email below with a bio, an industry
reference (include contact information), and a draft of the screenplay
you wish to develop in residence at the Colony.
