The Austin Film Society's Director of Artist Services Bryan Poyser will present this free informational workshop about AFS's Texas Filmmakers' Production Fund, which annually offers grants of up to $25,000 to Texas filmmakers. He will take participants through the application form step-by-step and screen work samples from successful applications.

At this first of two Houston-area workshops, Bryan will be joined by Douglas Newman, who received a $5,000 production grant from TFPF in 2007 for his documentary GONE TO TEXAS: THE LIVES OF FORREST CARTER, to discuss the submission process and offer tips on how to apply.

Filmmakers residing in Texas for at least one year prior to the June 2, 2008 deadline are eligible to apply to TFPF, which has given out over $830,000 in cash, goods and services to Texas filmmakers since 1996. For more information on the Fund, and for a schedule of other workshops throughout Texas, visit here.

Presented in partnership with the Aurora Picture Show.
