Tribeca All Access - Submissions Now Under Review

Tribeca All Access (TAA) supports directors and screenwriters from traditionally under-represented communities in the film industry by serving as a year round networking and career development forum that provides access to industry representatives looking for new projects in development.  Each year , a diverse group of emerging and established filmmakers are selected from an open call for submissions to participate in a series of workshops and panels, before pitching their narrative scripts or documentary works-in progress in a series of one-on-one business meetings with industry executives during the Tribeca Film Festival.  

Submissions are now closed.

October 26, 2009 – EARLY DEADLINE (Postmark)
December 14, 2009 – FINAL DEADLINE (Postmark)

Deadlines are for U.S. based filmmakers only. International based filmmakers should apply through one of TAA’s partner organizations (UK Film Council, ScreenAustralia, or the Canadian Film Centre).

Program alumni receive year round support through TAA OnTrack, which offers free use of digital filmmaking and editing equipment; promotional support for completed films; TFI hosted presentation screenings; and several other educational panels and workshops. Through its partnerships, Tribeca All Access offers additional awards and fellowships to its alumni which include the TFI Adrienne Shelly Fellowship and the Tribeca All Access Mandela Day Award.

Since its founding in May 2004, Tribeca All Access has supported the careers of more than 155 filmmakers and facilitated over 2,430 one-on-one business meetings.  As a result, several of the program’s supported filmmakers and projects have gone on to receive financial and promotional support while premiering at major festivals and enjoying distribution in theaters and cable networks.   The program has become a recognized talent pool within the industry and an unrivaled opportunity for participating filmmakers to advance their careers.
