We are now accepting applications for
the 2010 Robert Flaherty Film Seminar
Fellowship Program
Deadline: March 5, 2010
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The Flaherty is currently offering two types of Fellowships which provide economic support to applicants interested in attending the Seminar: Professional Development and Student.
For eligibility requirements, application, and a full list of the fellowships that were offered during 2009, please go to www.flahertyseminar.org.
The Fellowship Program is led by an academic who has attended previous Flaherty Seminars and is designed to further your knowledge of cinema through participation in an array of unique discussions. Fellows will also participate in all general Seminar activities. The program is rigorous and rewarding; it includes selected readings, special meetings with guest artists and other professionals, and smaller discussions with other Fellows. All fellowships are highly competitive.
Professional Development Fellowships:
The Professional Development Fellowship is designed for emerging or mid-career professionals such as filmmakers, programmers, writers, scholars, archivists, and media professionals. Awards are partial grants that cover a portion of the registration fee. Grants are applied directly towards registration for the Seminar.
Student Fellowships:
Student fellowships are open to undergraduate and graduate students currently enrolled in a degree program (PhD students will be considered in the Professional Development category). All majors are welcome; we select a diverse array of students from throughout the U.S., as well as internationally. We look for students who have the capacity to interact in both small and large groups, and be willing to share their passion for film. Awards are partial grants that cover a portion of the registration fee. Grants are applied directly towards registration for the Seminar.
Other Financial Grants Available:
Employees of New York State Non-Profit organizations focusing on media arts may apply for a grant to attend the 2010 Robert Flaherty Film Seminar through the Experimental Television Center. Go to www.experimentaltvcenter.org and apply for a Media Arts Technical Assistance Fund grant.
