Submissions are accepted from some of the nation’s top film schools, including: American Film Institute, California Institute of the Arts, University of Southern California, University of California Los Angeles, Chapman University, Los Angeles Film School and Loyola Marymount University, as well as many smaller film schools.

In addition to the Award, the winning filmmaker is also given a year’s opportunity to attend BAFTA Los Angeles events, seminars and screenings for a year to support their pursuits during this important early stage of their filmmaking career.
