The two-day workshop for the "Project" segment will take place on the weekend prior to the main pitch event, while the "Story" segment workshop is scheduled for October. To ensure you're well-prepared for the big day, the workshop will include one-on-one discussions and pitch practice with an assigned mentor.

No. After submission, you may check the status anytime in the submission system by going to “My Projects”. Submissions marked as “submitted” indicate successful completion.

Since past works will be reviewed by the jury, we recommend uploading your work to a cloud storage service (with link permissions set to 'anyone with the link can view') and sharing the link, or providing a link to a publicly available version of the work. Please make sure to check the video quality and its sharing permissions.
1. I have already applied for other grants or subsidies for my project/work. Am I still eligible to submit it to TCCF PITCHING?
Please note that projects which have already received development or production grants from the Ministry of Culture of Taiwan are not eligible to apply for CCDP. However, they may still apply for TICP 2.0.

4. When submitting to the “Project” segment, is it compulsory to list all key team members? (Can I still submit if only some of the producer/writer positions have been confirmed?)
Yes, all key team members must be listed. Since PITCHING is primarily aimed at encouraging the creation of original content and fostering collaboration by bringing together domestic and international resources across various sectors, including feature film, series, animation, and documentary, it is recommended that your team is complete and clearly defined. This will help facilitate the successful advancement of the project.
5. Are publications by foreign authors eligible for submission to the “Story” segment?
With the exception of Shoot the Book! TCCF, which is open to French and Taiwanese-published works, “Fiction & Non-fiction” and “Comics” sessions will only accept original Taiwanese works. The author must be a citizen of the Republic of China (Taiwan), and the work must be published in Taiwan.

You may submit as an individual author if the following conditions are met:
7. If the adaptation rights for the work have been sold for film or television, either domestically or internationally, but other rights are still available for sale, is the work still eligible to submit to the “Story” segment?
If the work has partially sold its film and television adaptation rights but still retains other rights available for sale, submission is permitted. However, please clearly specify which rights have been sold and which remain available for negotiation at the time of submission.
