Conde Nast, Indigenous Incubator to Prep Short Films

Variety: Josh Hutcherson will star in and make his directorial debut with “Ape,” a short film about a schizophrenic man, which is one of the five projects selected for “The Big Script” film incubator from Indigenous Media and Conde Nast Entertainment. CNE will distribute all five of the shorts on its video hub, the Scene. The short films, produced by Indigenous Media, have the potential to be fully funded and produced as feature-length films based on audience reaction and buzz.
