Since 2011, the New Orleans Film Festival’s South Pitch has provided a unique opportunity for filmmakers from across the American South to pitch their next film production to a panel of industry judges. This year’s program will feature two tracks: South Pitch Narrative presented by Warner Bros. Discovery and South Pitch Documentary. The winning narrative pitch will receive an ‘invitation only’ opportunity to apply for an artist grant from Warner Bros. Discovery’s content innovation hub, OneFifty (onefifty.com). The winning documentary pitch will receive a $10,000 cash prize. Winners will be announced during the NOFF Awards Brunch on Sunday, November 6.
South Pitch events are open to the public.
