We have two funding rounds per year, one in the Spring and one in the Fall. Please email us if you’d like to receive an announcement prior to the opening of of our next round. We also encourage you to review our eligibility guidelines and FAQ before you complete your application. If you have any questions about the application or your eligibility please contact us at info@catapultfilmfund.org.
The application has a brief section which is submitted online and a full application which is sent as an attachment with the online form. Other attachments required in the application are: development budget, work samples, resume or bio, contact information for two references, and letter from your fiscal sponsor if you have one at the time of the application.
Once the application deadline has passed, we begin our review process. We will let you know if we need further information or have any questions. During this time, please feel free to let us know about any updates to your application, e.g., funding received, budget changes, or application updates. Once we have made our grant decisions, we will inform applicants via email.
Grantees must have a fiscal sponsor to receive grant funds. Once you have a fiscal sponsor we will send you a letter of agreement that sets forth the terms of the grant. After we receive the signed agreement we will send the funds to the fiscal sponsor. Our goal is to deliver the grant within a month of the grant announcement.
