Screen Producers Australia and TikTok have launched the ‘Got a Minute?’ pitching competition for the upcoming Screen Forever conference, with the call out for participants to submit a pilot for a high quality 10 x 1 minute series that shows that engaging stories can be told in a minute. Three finalists will pitch their series to a panel of industry experts in a mainstage session on the second day of Screen Forever, where a winner will be chosen.

The winner will take home $15,000 in funding from TikTok to boost the production of their series, two project development sessions with Lee Naimo, senior investment manager at Screen Australia, and a TikTok content strategy mentorship. In addition, two runners up will receive $5,000 each in production investment from TikTok along with a TikTok content strategy mentorship.

Finalists will be notified by February 12.
