Some last minute notice courtesy of the Cheltenham Screenwriters Festival mailing about the Met Film School Training Scheme.

Writers with some professional experience can apply for the scheme that will support the development of a new script and pay "competitive fees" throughout the process.
The Met Film School Skillset Writers' Training Scheme will support ten talented emerging writers to develop a first draft of a feature film script whilst supporting their creative and professional development through an intensive training programme.

The initial six months will include 1:1 support from both a script supervisor and a producer and professional support, bespoke training courses, masterclasses, readings, workshops, and a series of placements designed to familiarize writers with working practice across the value chain of cinema from production to exploitation.

Five of the writers will then be selected for a further six months of development support. The programme will be delivered by a proven partnership of producers, distributors and training providers with an existing track record of developing scripts and delivering this level and type of training. Additional training and placements will be provided by a range of organisations including Hollywood studios.
The closing date is 10th March 2008.
