The Gala
Each year the fundraising gala has a theme for the attendees
to guide their attire and create excitement allowing writers to
use their creativity in dressing up for the event. This year's gala
theme is "Sentiments of a New Era." Last year's garden gala was
full of color and style. Content Creators of Atlanta is a non-profit (501 c3)
organization that was created through the parent
company Bridge 17 Scriptwriters' Studio, LLC.
Scriptwriters are the foundation of the TV/Film
industry, yet there are few programs to support
them in getting their ideas heard. Independent
Scriptwriters are tasked with creating the content,
preparing the pitch package, travel in search of
funding, and for many independents; assist with
production and promotion thereafter. Writers bare
the burden and we want to contribute to relieving
their burdens.
The purpose of our annual awards gala, The
Content Creators of Atlanta Awards (CCAA), is to
raise funds for screenwriters in the Atlanta metro
area with micro-grants to promote their projects,
flights to festivals, screenplay competitions,
attorney fees, and many other screenwriter
expenses.
The Founder
Screenwriter, Producer, and Script Consultant - AZ Yeamen is
the Founder and Executive Director of Bridge 17 Scriptwriters'
Studio; a 7,000 square foot independent content house for
writers to work, learn, collaborate, promote, screen, and enjoy a
like-minded tribe. Yeamen has circled the independent film
market working on numerous projects with independent
production houses.
Nearly thirty scripts and years later selling every script she has
ever written, she became the go-to for revisions, doctoring, pitch
packages, and whipping stories into shape for TVOne, Aspire TV,
Netflix, UMC Streaming, Bounce TV, and mostly independent
production companies.
Yeamen founded the first and only non-profit independent
organization to promote and highlight only screenwriters in
Atlanta - Content Creators of Atlanta.
