In addition to directing West and having the support of a highly experienced film crew, the Jameson First Shot winners will also have the help of a leading producer and access to the wider film community.

Dana Brunetti, who has produced award-winning pieces for film and television, will sit alongside each the winners on set, providing them with support, guidance and input when needed.

In the sixth year of the competition, Jameson has expanded its catchment area to include entrants living in the following countries: US, UK, Ireland, Canada, South Africa, Bulgaria, Australia and Israel.
