TAIPEI, July 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- To foster more marketable and
internationally influential works, the Taiwan Creative Content
Agency (TAICCA) will host the Taiwan Creative Content Fest (TCCF)
2024 in November. TCCF aims to continue expanding international
opportunities for the production, investment, sales, and
distribution of cross-disciplinary cultural content from
Taiwan, offering investment
support totaling over USD 3 million.
This year's TCCF PITCHING is divided into "Project to Screen" for
audiovisual project pitches, and "Story to Screen" for published
texts, comics, and original story concepts with adaptation
potential.
International Submissions for "Project to Screen"
Submissions for "Project to Screen" are currently being accepted
globally and will close on July 31.
Interested parties are encouraged to seize this rare opportunity
and apply. Apart from prize money offered by TAICCA and its
official partners, TCCF offers an opportunity to apply for
investment support from TAICCA totaling over USD 3 million for all selected projects of
"Project to Screen" and "Story to Screen", along with accommodation
subsidies and training resources.
Last year, "Project to Screen'' opened its doors to
international projects for the very first time, attracting
submissions from over 15 countries and regions, including the U.S.,
France, Germany, Pakistan, Armenia, Iran, Norway,
Japan, South Korea, Indonesia, Singapore, and India. A total record of 539 submissions for
TCCF PITCHING garnered attention from the global audiovisual
market.
TCCF Award Winners Shine on the Global Stage
TCCF award winners are making significant impacts and gaining
recognition at prestigious film festivals and markets as well. The
documentary After the Snowmelt, winner of the "TAICCA X CNC
AWARD" in TCCF 2023, met distributors from around the world at TCCF
and has since been selected to multiple international film
festivals, including Visions du Réel in Switzerland, Jeonju International Film
Festival in South Korea, Trento
Film Festival in Italy, and
Millennium Docs Against Gravity in Poland, showcasing Taiwan's cultural and content strengths on the
global stage.

Joanne DENG, the big winner of last year's TCCF "Story to
Screen" for her novel Second Lead, recently shared her hope
for Second Lead's adaptation in the future, hoping it would
evoke moving emotions. After winning two major awards at TCCF
2023, Second Lead was selected for the "Shoot the Book!"
pitch event at Cannes' Marché du
Film, showcasing its impressive development potential. Veteran film
and television agent Sandy LIN of The Grayhawk Agency, which
represented Second Lead at TCCF PITCHING, shared that apart
from persistence and effort, turning a literary work into a film or
TV series requires a lot of luck and goodwill, "Thanks to the
assistance from TCCF. The adaptation of Second Lead is still
in progress, and we look forward to achieving our long-awaited goal
soon."
