For those of you working in film, a big break may be in sight. The WorkBook Project recently announced the first Discovery and Distribution Award initiative. One feature filmmaker will be chosen to receive the award—which comes with a one-week theatrical release in Los Angeles, PR support, and a cash award.

In the current environment, it’s often tough for budding filmmakers to break through larger companies’ hold over the theatrical market. Often, it’s tough to find audiences, distribute work widely, and raise money to not only cover costs but also to sustain their next project. By guaranteeing an artist distribution, marketing, and profit, this award serves as an out for both film and filmmaker.

Though one filmmaker will receive the award, 20 runners up will be propped up through various online distribution outlets. Judging begins in less than two months, so be sure to submit soon!

The WorkBook Project, which partnered with the Open Video Alliance to hold the Open Video Conference earlier this year, is an online community that collects innovative methods, media, tutorials, and advice from people who see the collective benefit of making their creative processes transparent.
