5 Resources That Will Assist You In Funding Your Short Film -Short Film Making & Marketing Tips- Indie Shorts Mag

Every short filmmaker’s nightmare begins here; every short film’s fate hangs in here! Some of the best films wouldn’t have even made it to the screen had it not been for the timely financial assistance. What could possibly be the cause of this? Films are an expensive artistic medium. The cinematic experience a director crafts for you undergoes a gruelling process of procuring the right types of equipment, having the right star cast & location amongst others. All of these make it heavy on the purse strings. Short films particularly find it difficult to resource their finances, primarily because they are perceived as less of a return making investment.

However, this shouldn’t be a cause to making you deter from taking the plunge.

ISM brings you reliable resources to fund your short films!

  1. FILMS WITHOUT BORDERS (FWB)

Based in New York, FWB is an educational non-profit organization that finances and supports a variety of media and independent film projects via film grants, donations, competitions and international fellowships amongst others. Their main motto isn’t restricted to just offering finances but also providing the youth from undeserved communities the technical know-how, digital tools usage and media literacy skills.

  1. CINEMART
