Grant Description

The Narrative Content Short Film Production Fund supports Australian content makers—comprising a director, writer, producer and, where applicable, animator—to produce live-action or animated narrative short films (up to 15 minutes) intended for a first and primary window at theatrical festivals. It offers between $75,000 (minimum request) and up to $100,000 for live-action projects or up to $125,000 for animation or hybrid projects, with total production budgets capped at $175,000. The programme aims to foster diverse Australian talent connected to the stories they tell, deliver cultural and creative economic benefits, and establish viable pathways to local and global festival audiences.
