Deadline- 1 October 2013
Applicants from East Africa are invited to submit documentary film for which the funding is offered by DOCUBOX. The objective of this program is to support and input from internationally acclaimed documentary filmmakers from the conceptual stage, right through to the production and post-production stages of our supported projects.
Films in two stages are supported-
- project development & trailer development
- production & post-production
In the first part of program, DOCUBOX will offer a maximum of 10 filmmakers the chance to develop their concept and make trailers, or shoot a short section of their film, supported by grants of $2,000.
All participating filmmakers granted $2,000 to make these trailers and are free, if not selected for further development by DOCUBOX, to use these trailers to pursue further funding or to develop the trailers into feature films, provided they credit DOCUBOX for the development grant assistance.
In the second stage of program, a selection panel chooses the most promising projects from the completed trailers and supports a maximum of 6 projects each receiving a maximum of $25,000 to complete production of their films.
Eligibility & Criteria-
filmmakers must be East African or have resided in East Africa for a minimum of eight years.
