Founding framework in developmentNo provision in this chapter has been adopted
Plain-language summary
Eligibility answers a single question: may this work, and this contribution, be considered at all. Film and Stage are held to equal standing, with requirements written for how each is actually made and presented. None of these requirements has been set yet.
Plain-language summaries are provided for clarity. Where an approved formal rule exists, that formal rule governs in the event of any inconsistency.
Institutional principles
Film and Stage hold equal institutional standing and may carry different eligibility requirements appropriate to each world.
Shared eligibility principles may coexist with world-specific rules; neither world is described in the other's terms.
Eligibility is determined by published criteria, never by commercial relationship.
