Call

Call for proposals - an annual funding round by which the funding is allocated for each scheme. Each scheme has only one call for proposals in any year but each call may have different deadlines that you can choose to apply for.

 

Creative documentary

Creative documentaries take a real-life subject as their starting point but require substantial original writing and set out an author's and/or director's point of view.  MEDIA support will not be granted for any other form of documentary, in particular reports, news programmes and magazines, talk shows, reality shows, "docusoaps", or educational, teaching and "how-to" programmes.
