Today is the last day to enter CineStory’s TV Retreat & Fellowship contest at the late deadline rate of $70. The only way to qualify to attend the retreat and be in the running to win the TV Fellowship is to enter the contest!

The Retreat

CineStory selects 25 emerging screenwriters through the TV competition for a 4-day intensive retreat held in 2020 on March 21st – March 24th. All retreat attendees will have the opportunity to meet with 3 industry professionals and receive personalized feedback on their projects, as well as first-hand advice on how to navigate a career in the entertainment industry. In addition, attendees participate in a mock Drama and a mock Comedy writers’ room so they can experience what it is like inside an actual TV writers’ room.

The TV Fellowship

One exceptional writer also will be selected as the CineStory Fellow and will receive a prize valued at $5,000 USD that includes free tuition and lodging to the TV Retreat, a $1,000 cash prize, and a 12-month mentorship from 2 industry mentors to help enhance the Fellow’s career path.
