DIVERSITY IN FILM INITIATIVE
InFocus directly supports artists from diverse backgrounds looking to break into the entertainment industry. The Diversity In Film Initiative offers bursaries of up to $2500 to people with a diverse or racialized heritage, members of historically marginalized communities, or those who have faced adversity due to disability or systemic biases. That means we are looking for filmmakers and visual storytellers who are LGBTQ2SAI+, BIPOC, facing mental or physical barriers, or are otherwise underrepresented in the film industry. We’re here to get your story heard.
FUNDING OPTIONS
Resources exist to aid in the financing of your education, especially if you face discrimination or other barriers to employment. Explore the LGBTQ2SAI+ scholarships and bursaries below.
