Re: Nicholl 2019
They do not guarantee you get repped. They do not guarantee exposure. They guarantee fellowships to the winners.
From their website:
PRIZES
Up to five $35,000 fellowships are awarded each year to promising new screenwriters. From the program's inception in 1986 through 2018, $4.405 million has been awarded to 171 writers.
FELLOWSHIP OBLIGATIONS
Up to five fellows in the Academy Nicholl Fellowships in Screenwriting competition will be invited to participate in awards week ceremonies and seminars in November.
Fellowship recipients will be expected to complete at least one original feature film screenplay during the fellowship year.
Fellowship payments will be made quarterly subject to satisfactory progress of the recipient's work, as judged by the Academy Nicholl Fellowships Committee.
The Academy reserves the right to grant no awards if, in the opinion of the Academy Nicholl Fellowships Committee, no entry is of sufficient merit.
I agree with you Gucci.
