Screen Australia, in partnership with the International Film Festival Rotterdam (IFFR), is offering a special travel grant scheme for three producers to attend the Rotterdam Lab, organised as part of CineMart at the IFFR (25–29 January 2009).
The deadline for applications is 5pm Friday 14 November 2008.
Emerging Australian producers wishing to apply for travel assistance must have a feature film project in development, thematically suited to the festival and potentially ready for submission to CineMart 2010. They must also have producer credits on either a short, feature film or documentary that has performed well at key international film festivals.
Screen Australia is offering travel assistance of $3000 each to three producers to attend the 2009 Lab. Five nights accommodation in Rotterdam will also be provided by the festival.
More information about films that have screened at the IFFR, as well as tips for attending can be found on the Screen Australia website, and also on the festival’s website:
