    UBAWA Documentary Author Submission Form

    Picture
    Thanks for your interest in participating in the new UBAWA Documentary, airing on a major network in the fall, featuring 8 authors living in the Los Angeles area. You must be over the age of 18 to participate and be available for filming between the dates of April 23 and May 2nd. The purpose of this documentary is to reveal the behind the scenes work of what it takes to write, publish, and promote a book independently. Each author will be given a ONE-hour interview and a half-day to film their story. This is your time to shine!
    ​DIRECTIONS: Be creative about how you will tell your story on camera. Below is the submission form to sign up.  Please complete this form in its entirety. If you are one of the eight who are selected, you will be notified via email. The cost to secure your spot for this feature is $150 due immediately, which covers the cost of filming, postproduction, and promotion. A PayPal invoice will be sent to you once we have received your submission.  While this feature is on a first come, first serve basis, special consideration will be given to authors whose stories are unique, forthcoming, and relatable. 
    Max file size: 20MB
    Don’t tell us a story about your book, TELL US ABOUT YOU! What makes your life unique? What’s your backstory? What has been your biggest challenge in life? What made you decide to become an author? What are your future goals?
    Thank you!
