DIRECTION OF A SCENE FOR THE STAGE DIRECTORS AND CHOREOGRAPHERS SOCIETY (SDC) SCHOLARSHIP.
​The SDC event is intended for experienced students who have directed several scenes OR a fully mounted production. Students in this program will receive feedback on the final product from one or more professional directors and/or educators during the Festival. During the regional festival one individual will be selected by one or more SDC member(s) to receive a one-year membership in SDC. 

SDC Entry/Submission Process

Please submit both of the following. 
A. Pre-recorded Video Concept Presentation
​
Each participant for SDC will prepare a 10 Minute video concept presentation based on one of the plays/scenes from the 2022 list. Videos should be posted to youtube. Be sure to publish videos as "unlisted" not "private". 
The First 5 Minutes of the Video 
​You have 5 minutes to present the vision of your ideal production of the ENTIRE script of your chosen play (from the SDC 2022 list above). The respondents will be familiar with your play. Within the five minutes answer the following:
  • Who are you? (Please make sure NOT to include the name of your school)
  • What play did you choose?
  • Why does this play need to be done RIGHT NOW?
  • Why are you the artist to do this play, and what will you, specifically, bring to the produciton?
  • What does your ideal production look/feel/sound like?
Additional questions you may wish to address (if time allows):
  • What space do you want to do the play in?
  • What is your big wish for the production?
  • What impact do you want your production to have?
  • How can you succinctly tell the story of this play?
The Second 5 Minutes of the Video
Present a 5 minute emotional and visceral response to the play using images, music, collage, vision boards, short film, other persons, things - anything which will help you express your connection to the play. This is for you to use all of your creativity to reflect the heart and would of the piece and to further support and reflect your deep analysis of the whole play.
B. Director's Book
Include your director's book as a single PDF file. Your director's book should include your analysis of your play/scene and all evidence of concept work and research.
