CAPE New Writers Fellowship

The Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment (CAPE) celebrates the tenth anniversary of their New Writers Fellowship Program by ushering in a class of seven writers.

The New Writers Fellowship Program is a non-studio professional development program that trains emerging writers to succeed in Hollywood. The program boasts a reputable track record, placing graduates on over 50 shows across all major network, cable and streaming platforms in addition to those who have signed overall deals.

The 2022 CAPE fellows join a distinguished alumni network including April Shih (Dave), Julie Wong (Grey’s Anatomy), Kevin Lau (House Of The Dragon), Lauren Moon (Silk), Helen Shang (The Lord Of The Rings), Franklin Jin Rho (Pachinko) and many others.

The program is co-chaired by co-founders Steve Tao (SVP, Current Programming, The CW) and Leo Chu (Showrunner/Executive Producer, Ultra Violet & Black Scorpion, Afro Samurai). The 2022 class, which features all television writers, will participate in two months of virtual sessions including master lasses, panels, workshops, table reads, as well as work with one-on-one script mentoring.
