Call for Entry: Global Film Initiative Winter Grant 2013

|

The Global Film Initiative is now inviting entries for the Winter 2013 cycle of its feature-film production grants program. Applications will be accepted from November 15, 2012 through January 15, 2013, and decisions will be announced in April 2012.

Feature-length, narrative film projects in all stages of production by directors from eligible nations of Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, Central & Eastern Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Oceania can enter.

The Global Film Initiative’s Granting Program awards fifteen to twenty grants per year, of up to $10,000 each, to filmmakers whose work ‘exhibits artistic excellence, authentic self-representation and accomplished storytelling’.

Ashim Ahluwalia’s Miss Lovely which is the official selection at Un Certain Regard in Cannes Film Festival this year was awarded the GFI Grant in 2010.

Funds received from grants are used to support completion of film production and to subsidize post-production costs such as laboratory and sound mixing fees, and access to advanced editing systems.

These funds will be made available following the initiative’s evaluation of an applicant’s completed screenplay and early film-footage.

Global Film Initiative production grants are awarded twice a year, in winter and summer. The Global Film Initiative is a U.S.-based not-for-profit organization, founded in 2002.
