The Screen BC Short Film Award provides one emerging filmmaker with an opportunity to further develop their directing career by realizing a unique creative vision. This program was established to recognize and celebrate the contribution of film and television to the Province of British Columbia.

The successful candidate will receive a $15,000 cash award, plus services “in-kind” valued up to $100,000 from across the industry, enabling the filmmaker to complete his/her/their project with the guidance of experienced industry professionals and support services provided by top supply houses in British Columbia.

Screen BC will assist the winning team to solicit and coordinate substantial donations of “in-kind” services from the membership of Screen BC including production and post production services, equipment and supplies.
