The Black List has partnered with the Fox Broadcasting Company. Press release below:
The Black List is pleased to announce our first partnership with a broadcast television network.
Today we begin work with the Fox
Broadcasting Company to help discover television drama writers for
current and future FOX productions.
"As we build a year-round slate
of high-quality programming, we are constantly looking for fresh voices
that break out of the pack," said Terence Carter, Executive Vice
President, Drama Development & Programming. "Given the Black List's
impressive track record in features, they are the perfect partner for us
as we seek out new drama talent."
Beginning today, writers with
pilots hosted on the Black List website who have not made more than
$500K for script or teleplay work in aggregate over the last ten years
may opt into consideration via the site. The deadline for opting in is
May 1, 2014 at 11:59 PM PT.
Shortly thereafter, the Black
List will select a short list of five writers based on the data gathered
about each script during its time hosted on the website. Each finalist
will then provide a professional resume and one page personal statement,
which will be reviewed along with their selected original work by Fox
executives.
To be considered, simply opt in during the script upload process or on your My Scripts page.

This joins the Black List's previous partnerships with Walt Disney Studios, TBS and TNT, the Sundance Institute Workshop, the Cassian Elwes Independent Screenwriting Fellowship, and the blind deal offered via Warner Bros, as the newest of the opportunities it's made available to users.
