ScreenCraft Announces China-Hollywood Screenwriting Fellowship Winner
Craig Rosenthal has been named by Orb Media Group and ScreenCraft as the winner of the second annual China-Hollywood Screenwriting Fellowship on the basis of his script #Cloudman.
Grand Prize
#Cloudman by Craig Rosenthal
After a young American woman’s phone starts receiving mysterious pictures from China, she goes on a road trip to track down the guy who shares her photo stream. Orb Media CEO, Peter Shiao, was "impressed with the concept of using technology as a thread to connect unlikely characters from disparate backgrounds in this romantic comedy that is uniquely positioned to be a potentially important and successful co-production between China and Hollywood."
Shiao added, "The writer, Craig Rosenthal, has also demonstrated his commitment to the space with a body of work and career choices that speak to his preparedness, passion and skill to undertake this journey."
Runner-up
Good Fortune by Camille Dunn
Set against the small town of Locke, California, this Chinese American coming of age story blends elements of horror and drama as it focuses on a group of friends and what they uncover one summer when children start disappearing. Shiao felt the film was "told with deep cultural resonance and a nostalgic sheen that charts new terrain in cross-border entertainment and introduces us to a new, fresh and nuanced voice."
Honorable Mention
Unjust Lands by Joshua Cavalier
After her mother’s death, a teenage orphan in Song-dynasty China embarks on a journey to find her father. Accompanied by her younger brother and an errant soldier, the trio discover a new purpose in each other. Balancing the scope of the journey with the delicacy of a character drama, Shiao found the first feature script by Joshua Cavalier "evoked the early works of Fifth Generation Chinese filmmakers and portends a writer worth watching."
