Championing artists and supporting innovative storytelling to inspire climate action In partnership, Film Independent and Plot Shift Media offer grants and educational opportunities for independent artists seeking to explore a just and equitable climate future – and the pathways to get there – through innovative storytelling.
#### The Climate Entertainment Development Grant The Climate Entertainment Initiative will award a $25,000 development grant to a filmmaker who is accepted into Film Independent’s **Screenwriting Lab** or **Fast Track** with a climate-focused fiction feature. $5,000 of the grant must be earmarked towards the packaging of the project, including the creation of a budget and schedule and/or the hiring of a casting consultant.
The screenplay must feature climate themes or have a lead character that is grappling with climate themes. The grant committee prioritizes projects that take an entertainment-first approach to climate storytelling and inspire feelings of possibility and agency when it comes to climate solutions, especially through characters and genres not traditionally associated with “climate stories.
