2024 Black Llist

2024 Black List

Congratulations to our four UGFTV alumni whose scripts were recognized on The 2024 Black List!

The Black List is an annual list of "most liked" scripts, according to the suggestions of more than 500 film executives, each of whom contributed the names of up to ten favorite feature film screenplays that were written in, or are somehow uniquely associated with, 2024 and will not have begun principal photography during this calendar year. This year, scripts had to receive at least 9 mentions to be included on The Black List.

Ten years after she disappeared as a teen, Violet, now 25, turns up with no memory of what happened to her, but as her family welcomes her home, it quickly becomes apparent that the past cannot be forgiven or forgotten.

OLD SOULS by Hannah Stoddard ’13 (BFA, Kanbar Institute, Film & TV)

A trio of sassy, elderly women receive a unique offer from Death for a week of youth in exchange for their lives.

ONBOARDING! by Jackson Kellard ’15 (BFA, Kanbar Institute, Film & TV) 

When a group of new hires get invited to their company’s corporate retreat, things quickly take a turn as they discover the only way to land the job is to survive the weekend. Literally.

UNTIL YOU by Cameron Fay ’03 (BFA, Kanbar Institute, Film & TV)

When a chance encounter thrusts two perpetually single people together, their undeniable connection leads to a romance unlike anything they’ve experienced before, while both hiding a secret that could tear it all down.
