Frameline

Completion Fund

Overview

The Frameline Completion Fund provides grants to emerging and established filmmakers. This program seeks to provide a much-needed source of financial contributions to artists who often struggle to secure funding to complete their works. Grants up to $5,000 are available for the completion of films that represent and reflect LGBTQ+ life in all its complexity and richness.

Reward

Submissions are accepted for documentary, narrative, experimental, animated, or episodic projects about LGBTQ+ people and their communities. The Fund also seeks to bring new work to under-served audiences; with this in mind, we especially encourage applications by women, people of color, transgender people, intersex people, asexual people, non-binary people, disabled people, and other underrepresented people and communities.

Eligibility

Grants are given only for completion; therefore, projects must have 90% of production finished and be in the post-production phase or ready to begin post as soon as funding is in place. Grants will ONLY be given to projects about LGBTQ+ people and their communities.
