Funding Opportunity: Creative Saskatchewan Filmmaker's Grant
Receive up to $7,500 to produce a music video, Deadline to apply is Dec 13th, 2023
Deadline: December 13, 2023
Formerly known as the Music Video Production Grant, Creative Saskatchewan's Filmmaker's Grant provides funding for a unique mentorship and production program to produce content under 10 minutes intended to build the filmmakers’ professional portfolio.
Music Videos:
For musicians, the program’s objective is to promote an upcoming single through the production of a music video. For filmmakers (director or producer, or an individual acting as both), the program’s objective is to create capacity development opportunities, as selected applicants will gain experience managing production and working with clients.
Both parties (musicians and filmmakers) will have a completed music video to add to their professional portfolio. However, the musicians will maintain ownership of the finished project.
A letter of support for the project from the musician must be included in the application. Musicians must be a signatory on the funding agreement should a grant be awarded.
Filmmakers will be paired with a mentor throughout the production process who will advise and work with the teams to finalize video treatment (shot list or storyboard etc.), production budget, production schedule, production agreements, rough cut, and fine cut.
Music Video Production budgets must not exceed $7,500
Deadline: December 13, 2023 at 4PM SK time
If a deadline falls on a statutory holiday or a weekend, applications will be accepted until 4:00 PM the following business day.
