Overview

The NZFC is procuring Screenwriting Development Services through The Black List LLC.

The services to be delivered include:
I. Assessment of all eligible submitted scripts by an internationally recognised industry leading organisation.
And for selected applicants:
II. Mentorships with top US screenwriters; and
III. Workshops and learning opportunities with up to the minute and unique knowledge of the current US market, and platforms.


NZFC believes the exemption rule that applies to this procurement is:
14.9.c. Only one supplier: If the goods, services, or works can be supplied by only one supplier and there is no reasonable alternative or substitute because:
i. for technical reasons there is no real competition,
AND;
ii. the procurement relates to the acquisition of intellectual property or rights to intellectual property (including patents or copyrights), or other exclusive rights.
The NZFC ‘s decision to engage The Black List is as a result of the combination of key factors including their specialist expertise in each and every element of the project. No other organisation can offer everything in one place, paired with the experience, expertise, know-how and reputation of The Black List that a partnership with The Black List will confer upon New Zealand filmmakers and the NZFC. The Black List have the reputation, capacity, capability and most importantly the talent and skill, to deliver this programme of work (their intellectual property that NZFC will be accessing) and provide the broader outcomes NZFC wants to see.
