Is it necessary to apply using your Submission form?
The only fair way to evaluate these proposals is to use a structured proposal checklist, which is what most other funds also require. This is designed to encompass the key issues involving your film’s request: how it meets the mission of the fund; how it will be financed; what its audience engagement plans are; who the key filmmakers are; what the film is about; and a short sample of footage.
Our submission process is similar to that used by other funds, so your effort can be reused when making other applications.
