If you are a Writer, Director, or Producer yet to make your mark in the live action or animation industry, this new initiative from the NTA Film & TV and NTA Animation aims to support you in creating a short film and gaining your first professional credit as a Writer, Director, or Producer.

The First Credit Short Film Scheme is targeted at new and emerging filmmakers, with a budget of €7,000 in addition to carefully tailored mentoring, training, and workshops delivered by experienced industry professionals

The first step for all applicants is to attend one of the three registration days.  These will take place on:

• Day One: Thur Jan 11th, Galway City, 2PM 
• Day Two: Sat, Jan 13th. Online, 6PM
• Day Three: Sat, Jan 20th, Dublin City, 10am

At these events, the NTA will answer any questions around the scheme.  Writers will also be given the opportunity to pitch to other attendees, and the event will end with a networking session.
