Martin Scorsese Masterclass in Cannes

 

 

 

Calling all documentary filmmakers! Sundance funding proposals are due Feb. 9, 2012

Here’s a great opportunity for documentary filmmakers. The
Sundance Documentary Fund supports documentary films from around the world that
focus on current human rights issues, freedom of expression, social justice,
civil liberties, and critical issues of our time. The fund wants to encourage
the diverse exchange of ideas crucial to developing an open society, raise
public consciousness about human rights abuses and restrictions of civil
liberties, and foster an ongoing dialogue about these issues.

 

Grants are given to filmmakers worldwide for projects that
display artful and innovative storytelling techniques, global relevance,
contemporary social issues, and potential for social engagement. The fund will
only consider projects that range in length from full broadcast hour to long
format feature.

 

Applications are accepted in two funding categories:

1) Development funding is provided to projects that are
between development and preproduction. Grants up to $20,000 will be awarded in
this category. There is no reel required with an application, but clips,
teasers, trailers, and/or images are highly encouraged. A previous work sample
is required.

 

2) Production/post-production grants provide up to $50,000
to filmmakers in various stages of the production and post-production process.
Applications are required to include continuously edited material that is
approximately 20 minutes to 75 minutes long.  A previous sample work must also be included
with the application.

 

3) For filmmakers who have already received a grant from the
Sundance Documentary Fund, there is an additional category for which they can
apply for the same project. The fund's Audience Engagement grants support
innovative outreach and engagement campaigns and cutting-edge, multi-platform
engagement strategies.

 

The deadline for the Spring 2012 funding round is February
9, 2012.
