SFFILM Sloan Science in Cinema Fellowship
About this opportunity
The Sloan Science in Cinema Filmmaker Fellowship supports narrative features and series that engage with scientific and technological themes. Two fellows are selected annually, each receiving a substantial cash grant, a residency at SFFILM's FilmHouse, and pairing with a science advisor to ensure authentic representation of scientific content.
Application tips
Your project should meaningfully engage with science or technology, not merely use them as backdrop. The fellowship values projects where scientific themes drive character and story.
