Writers Academy 1 3:04pm on 12 Jan 2009 Hi Ceri,

Thank you for getting back to me. If you get a chance--could you also address what kind of commissions you expect from writers? I have been offered development funding from three funding bodies to produce a high end short. The script is in the middle stages of development with two producers and commissioners will make their final decision on completion funding in March. I am also in talks with a couple of theatres to stage short samples of my writing. As well, I have had a couple of short stories published and I work as a Freelance journalist. Finally, I am working towards a Post graduate certificate in Screenwriting. Do these examples help me meet the 'commissioning requirements of the scheme?' I hope my post wasn't too personal or detailed in its nature. Looking forward to your feedback. Thanks again.
Writers Academy 1 00:49am on 10 Jan 2009 Hi there,

I was wondering if someone could tell me what kind of script is expected to be submitted with the application form? Would a short film or a work of theatre do for the application form? Or do the BBC require 30-60 minute drama or a feature film to make their selection? This help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
