Program Guidelines
The Jerome Foundation operates a production grant program for individual film and video artists. This program serves artists who work in the genres of experimental, narrative, animation and documentary production. It does not support installation, new media or interactive work, which are subsidized in other Foundation programs. It also does not support commercial, industrial, informational or educational work. Approximately $90,000 is available for grants in 2008. THE
APPLICATION DEADLINE IS FRIDAY, MAY 23, 2008. APPLICATIONS MUST BE POSTMARKED OR DELIVERED TO THE FOUNDATION OFFICE ON OR BEFORE THIS DATE. OFFICE HOURS ARE 8:30 A.M. TO 4:30 P.M.
This program awards production grants to emerging artists whose work shows promise of excellence. The term emerging refers to career development and level of recognition, not stylistic evolution. Collaborative projects in which creative control is shared are also eligible.
Preference is given to personal work in which the artist exercises complete creative control over all aspects of production. This means the applicant must be the “director†of the work. The Foundation will not consider projects with total budgets exceeding $200,000. The level of support offered by the Foundation generally ranges from $8,000 to $30,000 per project.
