Kingston Script-to-Screen Pitch Competition

Event Description

Event type: All Ages

Kingston Script to Screen is a live, behind-the-scenes pitch event at KCFF26 where five creators present their original film and television ideas to a panel of industry experts. All in real-time, all in front of you - the live audience. Presented in collaboration with Kingston Film and Media, this event pulls back the curtain on one of the most exciting and mysterious parts of the industry: the pitch. Whether you’re a film fan, a curious creative, or someone who’s always wondered “How do projects actually get made?” this is your chance to see it happen live!

Over the course of the event, you'll watch five original scripted and unscripted projects pitched live on stage, with industry experts offering real-time, constructive feedback; giving you a clear look at how ideas are evaluated and refined. One winning creator will receive an all-access paid pass to key industry events later in the year, along with mentorship from a creative producer at Shaftesbury, one of Canada’s top production companies. Part masterclass, part live performance, and part creative conversation. Come for the ideas, stay for the insight, leave inspired!
