"Make the Scene!"
Pula Film Festival and United Media launched the partnership project "Make the Scene!" and published a call for participation in an international workshop on TV series script development. The best project will be awarded a prize of €10.000.
All talented authors are invited to submit, independently or jointly with production companies, their original and high-quality feature TV series projects that will make an impact in the world of contemporary storytelling. Registration for the "Make the Scene!" workshop, to be held as part of the 71st Pula Film Festival, is open from 2-30 April 2024.
