Amplified Voices Development Program

Screen Nova Scotia’s new Amplified Voices Development Program provides an opportunity to advance the skills of emerging writers and producers from underrepresented communities in Nova Scotia. The Program accelerates the creative and professional development of producers and writers through training and the creation of early-stage project-related deliverables.

The program has two components:

  • Pre-development provides training and feedback on creative materials through a training retreat, workshops and mentorship opportunities. This program is now closed for 2025 applications.
  • Development provides funding to develop high quality creative content to a level that can attract partners, financing and distribution so that it can move into production. This fund is now open for applications, with a deadline of December 4th, 2025.
