Finish the Script
It’s Year 2 of the Dolby Institute x Ghetto Film School Filmmaker Challenge and we've selected our winners. Now it’s time for them to finish the script.
Meet the filmmakersHow the challenge works
Award-winning director Carlos López Estrada writes an opening scene that is sent out to the GFS network. Emerging filmmakers from all over finish the script with their unique stories.
Four winners are awarded a $25,000 grant to make their film and provided with access to Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos to use in post. Throughout the entire filmmaking process, they’re mentored along the way by Carlos, Dolby, and GFS. We’ve now chosen our winning filmmakers and they’re headed into preproduction.
… did we mention the final films get the red-carpet treatment and premiere in LA?
