Summary
- Independent female filmmakers receive grants to shoot on celluloid.
- Selected grantees get camera, lens packages and free scanning.
- The initiative supports preserving the art of celluloid filmmaking.
Independent female filmmakers are set to revive the art of celluloid with a new grant program. Women Behind the Camera, in partnership with 33 & Change Films, MasterBuilt Lenses, and the nonprofit ASCF, is providing crucial support for analog filmmaking.
The initiative, which received 500 applications, has selected Anna Remus, LaTajh Simmons-Weaver, and the duo Mack Breeden and Riley Scott. These grantees will receive comprehensive camera and lens packages from ASCF and MasterBuilt Lenses.
Furthermore, filmmakers choosing to shoot on film will benefit from 1,200 feet of free scanning services. A complimentary one-year membership to the Alliance of Women Directors is also part of the grant package.
This program actively supports the preservation of celluloid filmmaking techniques. It empowers female directors by providing resources and opportunities to create projects using traditional film methods.
