The California Documentary Project (CDP) is a competitive grant program of the California Council for the Humanities. CDP supports film, radio and new media projects that document the California experience and explore issues of significance to Californians. Projects should use the humanities to provide context, depth and perspective; enhance our understanding of California and its cultures, peoples and histories; and be suitable for California and national audiences. Guidelines are now available at www.calhum.org
Grants are offered in the following categories:
Production - Film and radio up to $50,000. New media up to $20,000.
Research & Development - Film, radio and new media up to $7,000
Deadline: November 1, 2010
