Sheepish wins Alfred P. Sloan Screenwriting Prize

October 11, 2017 Daniel Hirsch
scienceandfilm_sheepish

I'm happy to announce that my screenplay Sheepish won first prize in the Alfred P. Sloan Screenwriting Prize. It's a $15,000 prize which I hope to use to a) help pay off some of those damn student loans and b) save up for the future development of this project.

Sheepish is a screenplay about how a scientist struggles to communicate his research to the greater public. When you study "gay sheep" things can get kind of hard to explain. The Museum of the Moving Image's Science on Film blog did an interview with me after I won. You can read it here.
