Telling the Story of Your Creative Work: Grantwriting & Packaging for Artists

$35.00

Designed to help filmmakers write about their projects in a way that lands with grant readers, labs, and institutions. We’ll sharpen your narrative voice within the application itself.

Featuring case studies drawn from successful applications to prominent institutional programs, this 75-minute session focuses on how to translate your project proposal or work-in-progress into language that immerses the reader in the world of your story.

From the perspective of a festival programmer, grant reader, and participant of programs such as the Sundance Writers and Directors Lab, Tribeca Through Her Lens Program, Film Independent Amplifier Fellowship, SF Film Rainin Grant, and more, I discuss:

  • Core components of project applications

  • What makes a project stand out

  • How to use your application to demonstrate your storytelling capabilities

  • Common misconceptions about what gets accepted

  • Juggling applications, time management, and more
