Emerging Filmmaker Grant

The LearningTimes Emerging Educational Filmmaker Grant is our way of helping to fund those furthering the conversations we have as a society about education, teaching, difference, sameness, value(s), community and the power of learning. The grant provides US-based emerging filmmakers pre-production stages of filming with up to $10,000 to create projects with an education theme.

We know it can be hard to get a filmmaking career off the ground, but with an TLTF grant filmmakers have access to funding that will help them achieve their immediate production goals. The grant program was created to add more voices to the topic of education which is broad, yes, and intentionally so.  We’re looking forward to hearing your point of view. 

Our current grant cycle is closed. Thank you all that submitted applications.
