| | | Silver Screen Society Grant for Film Student |
| The Silver Screen Society now offers an annual $3,000 grant to a SCAD student filmmaker to promote the practical, real-world process of commercial film production to student filmmakers.
Students are asked to develop and pitch a concept for a feature film based on a low-budget, feature length, “coming of age” story set in Savannah. Judges will award $1,000 to the student with the best entry. The winner will be announced at the 2007 Savannah Film Festival scheduled for Oct. 27-Nov. 3. That student will then have until May 1, 2008, to write the screenplay based on their treatment with assistance from industry professionals.
When completed, the student will present his or her screenplay to the Silver Screen Society Advisory Board. Upon acceptance, the student will be awarded another $1,000. Finally, the screenplay will be produced at a table reading by the student and actors reading the roles aloud and presented as an official event at the 2008 Savannah Film Festival. The student will then receive the final $1,000 at the end of the winning selection’s table reading.
Deliver the application and treatment to the Trustees Theater no later than Oct. 15 in a sealed envelope addressed to Silver Screen Society, Attn: Dean Ayers or e-mail it to deanayers@bellsouth.net.
