by ScreenCraft - updated on September 6, 2018

Today we announce the finalists for the second annual Orb Media China-Hollywood Screenwriting Fellowship. These writers represent the top 10 applicants of all scripts received. These ten projects will be sent to Orb Media to select two (2) winners in the next couple of weeks.

The two (2) selected winners will each be offered an option fee, one of which will be at least WGA minimum (up to $13,374) against a six-figure purchase price at WGA scale contingent on production (up to $133,739 each, depending on the final budget of each film). Orb Media Group and its partners will financially back and develop the projects for production and distribution with partners in China and the United States. The recipients will be provided with round-trip travel to the Shanghai International Film Festival in June 2018 to participate in special training and mentorship programs in partnership with the Shanghai Film School.
