Lionsgate and Massify have formed an innovative partnership to work with Massify's creative talent to develop groundbreaking feature film projects. The ultimate goal of the Lionsgate Incubator is to develop original film ideas that can be grown into feature films or shorts using the Lionsgate's development and production resources.
The first project, launching later this year, will produce a high-concept, male-driven comedy short based on a script from our community. A director, cast, and crew will also be attached through Massify, with Lionsgate's feature film development team providing input throughout the process.

From the Studio
We are entering the final week of entries and welcome your last minute submissions, comments and additional notes. We are starting to see some great stories develop and are pleased with this group endeavor. We do want to guide you to the finish line however with a few comments and suggestions.
Welcome to the Lionsgate Incubator! Lionsgate wants to develop a high concept comedy, a movie where the premise can be explained in a single sentence, or better yet, title. The winning script should be fun, full of hilarious dialogue and memorable characters.
We are thrilled to announce that Youtube has joined the LINC partnership as our global distribution partner. This will ensure that the final film produced from this program will reach the largest and most engaged audience online.
