Deadline: April 15th Annually
Eligibility: Indigenous filmmakers who are full members applying for independent projects.
The Saskatchewan Filmpool Cooperative is pleased to announce the introduction of the Trudy Stewart Prize that will be given out annually beginning in the Spring of 2020.
Eligible applicants are filmmakers of Indigenous descent who are full members of the Saskatchewan Filmpool in good standing. The $1,000 prize is to be used for production or post-production costs for a project by the successful applicant.
The deadline for applications will coincide with the Saskatchewan Filmpool Cooperative's Production Funding Deadline on April 15 of each year. This prize is separate from the Filmmaker's Production Assistance Program with separate adjudication processes and guidelines. Applicants are eligible to receive funding from both the Filmpool's Production Fund and the Trudy Stewart Prize, and proceeds can be used for the same project. Elements used by applicants in the proposal package for the Filmmaker's Production Assistance Program can be used in the application for the Trudy Stewart Prize.
All applications for this prize are accepted via email through production@filmpool.ca.
