The short film fund allows emerging talent worldwide to test their ideas before embarking on a feature film. Grants of up to £7,000 / $10,000 are available towards the production costs of all scripted genres and documentary short film content.

Additionally, this initiative supports using the resulting short films as proof of concept for future feature films. Kodak is partnering with Periscope to offer one filmmaker a $10,000 post-production deal, and with Raindance Festival, with all winners to be automatically eligible for consideration for the 2025 festival.

Previous grant recipients include Tom Berkeley and Ross White’s An Irish Goodbye.

The deadline is 30th September 2024.
