Opportunity Information: Apply for 20100818 TD

The America's Media Makers Grants provide funding for projects that delve into the humanities, aiming to illuminate stories and ideas that enhance our understanding of the world. The program emphasizes creativity and engagement, promoting discussions about culture, identity, and history. Applicants are encouraged to explore diverse formats to reach audiences of all ages.

There are two main types of grants available:

1. **Development Grants**: These support media producers in collaborating with scholars to refine humanities content and prepare for production. Eligible activities include consultations, research, script writing, and partnership development for outreach. The goal is to produce a polished project concept, such as a script or design document.

2. **Production Grants**: These are intended for projects ready for distribution. Applicants must submit a completed script for radio or television or a prototype for digital projects that reflects a thorough understanding of relevant humanities topics.

Additionally, there is the **Chairman’s Special Award**, designated for more ambitious projects that engage the public with significant humanities themes in innovative ways. This award supports the production phase only.

When applying, candidates should have a strong grasp of their subject’s humanities scholarship, establish their project’s focus and format, and engage a team of scholarly advisers. They must also identify key media professionals to bring their ideas to life.
