The winning script will receive $10,000 and get their film made by the winning filmmaker. Its like a dating website for writers and filmmakers.

So, you submit your screenplay to some (or all) of those competitions with your fingers crossed… And you might place in the top 10% or ...

East Doc Platform is designed for documentary professionals with projects in the development, production, and post-production stage, and for professionals with completed films.
Andrew Shermin shares his experience of making a film and using crowdfunding.
This summer I shot a documentary about Paris that I produced myself, and am now trying to use crowd-funding to finish it.
The concept was simple: a vision of Paris that was taken straight from reality, just a camera and a tripod on the street, offering a vision of the city that both confirms and subverts the fantasy of Paris that different media create. The images are like “moving postcards.”

The dark arts of feature film funding have always been a complete mystery to me and I don’t think I am alone in that regard. It may possibly be down to a peculiarly British sensibility of rank embarrassment at ‘selling yourself.’ Or it might be down to the C Grade I had in my Maths GCSE.Unless your as hideously talented as Nick Cave, who wrote The Proposition in 4 weeks, your script will be the result of months of painstaking, finger bleeding, relationship ending, sanity stretching re-writ...
