Film Hub North | Script Lab 2025

Deadline: 17.00 on Tuesday 20th May 2025

Film Hub North

is back, offering 10 new writers expert guidance and support to turn a short film idea into a ready-to-shoot script.

The programme is open to writers - from any creative discipline and experience - with an initial idea for a short film under 15 minutes in length. You don’t need to have made a film before or even worked in the medium: this course is suitable for artists working in different mediums who want to make the move into screenwriting.

Ideas must be original to the writer, and not an adaptation of third-party existing material. We will consider applications from co-writing teams as well as individuals. Applicants must be over 18, not in full time education and be based in the North ().

Your idea should be distinctive, different, have a strong perspective and potential for a clear plot, character arc and creative approach. Applicants will ideally have a dedication to working as a writer in creative arts.

How to apply

The application form will ask for details about your creative experience and your short film idea. You’ll also be asked to provide a sample of your previous work. 

If you have any issues with the online form, require application support or would like to apply in another way, please email bfinetwork@filmhubnorth.org.uk using the subject line “SCRIPT LAB APPLICATION.”
