RIFFA Academy is the educational arm of the Regina International Film Festival and Awards Foundation. Our mission is to carve out spaces for emerging and underrepresented voices, equipping them with professional industry educational opportunities. In 2024, RIFFA offered three programs: Emerging Filmmakers Fellowship, Screenwriters Fellowship and LOOK: A Mental Health/Film Initiative.
This fellowship is designed to provide emerging screenwriters with the tools and support needed to bring their creative vision to life. Our commitment is to identify and empower three writers each year who have started a feature-length film screenplay.
Through personalized editorial support, mentorship, and access to industry experts, our selected writers will be able to elevate their work to the next level.
