The Zodiak Kids Writers Award 2019 is open until 23 September 2019.
In partnership with BBC Writersroom and NI Screen, Zodiak Kids Studios is looking for writers with a strong connection to Northern Ireland to develop an original children’s comedy television series, with a particular focus on CBBC.
Up to six new writers to this genre will have an opportunity to be paid to develop an original series idea; two writers will subsequently be selected to win a pilot script commission.
Submit a writing sample at least 30 pages and a 2-page pitch for an original contemporary comedy / comedy-drama idea suitable for CBBC featuring at least 4 characters between the ages of 12 and 16.
