Ford Producers Grant at SVFF

In 2021, Ford and SVFF continue their partnership with a winning recipient receiving a $25,000 grant – a critical infusion to help a producer build their project from concept to completion. Projects will be reviewed by a committee including SVFF staff, industry experts and representatives from Ford. With the field narrowed to 3, the grant recipient will be selected by judge, Alice Gu. An award winning director and cinematographer, Gu wowed audiences this past year with her documentary feature The Donut King. The selected winner will walk away with a $25,000 Ford Producers Grant to take their project one big step closer to reality ABOUT SVFF The Sun Valley Film Festival, streaming April 14-18, 2021 is a 501(c)(3) charitable non-profit organization whose mission is to cultivate and promote the art of filmmaking, and to use the power of storytelling to foster meaningful connections.
