We’re built to put underrepresented filmmakers on a big screen in front of a packed, loving house. Twenty minutes or less, any genre. If it’s bold and it’s yours, send it.
Scope Screenings exists to break down the barriers placed in front of Black, brown, and tan creatives. We program for access, for craft, and for films that make a room of 300 people lean all the way in.
A point of view
We'll take a rough film with a real voice over a polished one with nothing to say. Show us how you see.
Twenty minutes, max
Shorts, music videos, trailers, docs, animation, experiments, skits. Any genre, just make every minute count.
Made by you
We prioritize PNW and underrepresented filmmakers. First-timers and new names are exactly who we're here for.
Fee waivers are available. Just reach out. Cost should never be the reason a film doesn’t get seen.
Cut it to twenty
Lock your film at twenty minutes or under and export a screener link or file you're proud of.

Add your title, synopsis, stills, and bio, then pay the entry fee, or request a waiver, no questions.
Watch your inbox
We watch every submission and reply to every filmmaker, programmed or not. Selections screen that season.
Submissions run on FilmFreeway. It takes about ten minutes, and we read every single one.
