PURPOSE
The goal of these grants is to give filmmakers business knowledge they can use to help turn their craft into a business venture, turn an existing project into a more fruitful venture or both. If you do apply for a grant, please have a business or project idea ready to bring to the classes. The 5 full-day classes start July 13, 2012 and end August 10, 2012.
