Have you ever had a dream for working for Nickelodeon? Nickelodeon is now accepting applications for the Nickelodeon Writing Program 2019.

The Nickelodeon Writing Program was developed to help aspiring writings join the film industry. The Nickelodeon Writing Program is designed to attract, develop and staff writers with diverse backgrounds and experiences on Nickelodeon Network productions. There are two different tracks. The General Track is a paid opportunity for emerging TV writers from around the world. “While in the Program, writers hone their skills, build a professional network and gain real-world experience in writers’ rooms for our critically acclaimed live-action and animated shows. The General Track is a 12-month commitment.” The second track is the Preschool Track. If you are interested in writing for an audience that likes to laugh this is for you. This is a 6-month commitment that offers development opportunities.
