United Media and Pula Film Festival proudly announce the continuation of successful cooperation through a second joint project “Make the Scene”.

After last year's workshop, which aroused great interest and resulted in original projects, we continue to support regional talents in the promotion of authentic television content.

As part of this year's edition of the "Make the Scene - Comedy Edition" project, a call is open for talented authors from Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro to submit their projects for feature television series in the comedy and dramedy genres, in the language of their country of origin.

Applications for the pitching program are open from April 25 to May 25, 2025. Each author can submit a maximum of two projects, provided that they have not previously received financial support or any award in other competitions or public calls. Participation is possible independently or in collaboration with a production company.

The pitching session will be held in the language of the participants' country of origin, in front of a three-member expert jury, as part of the Pula Film Festival from July 10 to 17, 2025. The best project will be awarded 5.000 euros, while the runner-up will receive professional mentoring support from renowned authors Goran Stanković and Vladimir Tagić, with the aim of further developing the project.

United Media is the leading media company in Southeast Europe and a leader in regional production. We produce more than 40.000 hours of original content, Cooperation with the Pula Film Festival, the oldest festival in Croatia, is part of the company's broader strategic commitment to support the development of creativity, production and culture in the region.
