re: tribeca documentary film grant

ok just for starters, this is a real long shot....but the tribeca film festival is becoming one of the most important east coast festivals around. so...might be good to get your name in hopper if not for the grant but for someone there seeing your work. ciao, rb.

The Tribeca Film Institute and Gucci have joined to create the Gucci Tribeca Documentary Fund, which will offer financing and production guidance to help independent filmmakers complete documentaries that promote social change, focusing on issues neglected by the mainstream news media. The fund will provide grants totalling $80,000 to a minimum of three filmmakers in 2008 and will be administered by the Tribeca Film Institute, and with Gucci and a selection committee of documentary filmmakers. All documentary filmmakers who have projects in production or postproduction may apply.

Deadline: Applications can be sent from February 5 to April 11, 2008

Recipients will be announced next summer.
