The Emerging Black Filmmakers Transformation Fund (EBFTF), an initiative created by the National Film and Video Foundation (NFVF) and the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) is no longer accepting pilot film proposals as from the closing date on 19 September.
The EBFTF provides financial, marketing and other related support to emerging black filmmakers and is designed for filmmakers who have released fewer than five feature films.
The first phase of EBFTF includes identification of a pilot project in order to refine the process from selection through to contracting and releasing of a film. A total of 85 applications were received for the EBFTF and acknowledgement letters have been sent to all applicants. The next step in the process is to evaluate those applications and identify which have complied with the criteria for entry. A short list of successful applications will be announced and candidates will be invited to the next stage which is pitching their concepts, the details of which will be announced once the successful applications have been identified.
