The deadline for the 2010 TFPF cycle has passed. Grant recipients will be announced in late August. The 2011 TFPF application period will begin in the Spring.

Below, for reference is information on eligibility for the 2010 cycle, as well as the 2010 TFPF application and examples of previous applications.

2010 Eligibility and Restrictions

  • You must be a resident of Texas and have been a resident since June 1, 2009.
  • Application must be made by the creative author of the final work. This is typically defined as the director. Producers, editors, crew people, and writers who are not in creative control of the final project are not eligible to apply. Awards will not be made to organizations. The applicant name(s) will appear with the project on all publicity materials when TFPF 2010 recipients are announced.
  • All genres of film or video are given equal consideration.
  • Projects must be independent productions. “Independent production” means a production under the artistic, budgetary and editorial control of the individual owning copyright. No consideration will be given to industrial or promotional pieces or “works-for-hire.” Primarily episodic works (television shows, web series) also will not be considered.
  • Application must be for the production, post-production or distribution stages. No consideration will be given for applications requesting pre-production or development funds. Applicants requesting funds for distribution must provide footage from the submitted project in their video sample.
  • AFS staff, Board members and TFPF interns are ineligible to apply.

Previous TFPF recipients

  • TFPF grants a maximum of 2 awards to an individual project. That means you can potentially receive TFPF funding twice (in different years of course) for the same project, for the same or different stages of production.
  • Additionally, previous TFPF recipients are not eligible to apply for funding on a new project until the previous project is completed.
