The selected filmmakers will attend the program in person in Los Angeles, California.
The residency is organised in partnership with the University of Southern California’s School of Cinematic Arts. This initiative, created as a result of US President Joe Biden’s 2022 Africa Leaders Summit, brings TV professionals from across the African continent to be mentored by American TV writers, producers and other industry professionals. The program will be held between July 8 to August 8, 2024.
During the program, participants will have sessions on professional development and network building.
