Six teams will pitch their ideas for short, one-off documentaries and fiction productions. Two winning teams – at least one of which will be Yukon-based - will be selected with each team receiving cash and in-kind services.
This is a free event open to the public. Filmmakers will pitch their projects to a panel of visiting and local jurors from the film and digital media sector in front of a live audience.

Projects selected to pitch will be evaluated for creative content, career and artistic growth and likelihood of the film finding its audience

Winning films must be delivered by February 1, 2019
