Script & Production Awards: Film & TV
Whilst the Faculty of the VCA & Music, Film and Television doesn’t have any department specific scholarships, there are a number of scholarships administered centrally by the Faculty for which students of the department may apply.
Film and Television has a number of awards which are merit based, some are made at script stage and the remainder for completed productions. There is no application for these awards which are determined by panels appointed by the department.
