SFFILM Sloan Stories of Science Development Fund

Overview

The SFFILM Sloan Stories of Science Development Fund is funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation as part of their mission to champion films that explore scientific or technological themes. SFFILM will award grants to filmmakers in the early stages of writing screenplays inspired by discoveries from the Stories of Science Sourcebook.

The Stories of Science Sourcebook is composed of eleven significant scientific and technological Discoveries made in 2019 and 2020 as a source of inspiration to filmmakers interested in telling fictionalized stories that explore the discovery’s underlying themes or characters, and dramatize the impact of these breakthroughs on members of the broader public.

Filmmakers may take creative latitude when proposing adaptations of these stories, however, their proposals must be grounded in both the material and a commitment to portraying the science or technology at the center of the stories in a manner that is realistic and grounded in scientific research.

Winning applicants to the Stories of Science Development Fund who draw their inspiration from the articles and discoveries collected in the Stories of Science Sourcebook will receive a $10,000 cash grant and participate in a two-day filmmaker retreat, during which they will receive guidance and mentorship from scientists and film industry professionals to help them shape their storytelling vision.

FAQs

Do I need to live in the Bay Area to be eligible for the SFFILM Sloan Fellowship?

No. SFFILM Sloan is open to filmmakers based anywhere in the U.S. or internationally.
What is the difference between the Sloan Fellowship and the Sloan Stories of Science Development Fund?

The Sloan Fellowship supports narrative features and series centered around scientific and technological themes in the screenwriting stage. Two fellows are selected annually and awarded cash grants of $35,000, a two-month FilmHouse residency, and a science advisor to support the scientific accuracy of the project.

The Sloan Stories of Science Development Fund awards a $10,000 cash grant to four filmmakers in the earliest stages of writing screenplays inspired by articles and discoveries from the Stories of Science Sourcebook. In addition to a cash grant, awardees must attend a two-day writer’s retreat at SFFILM FilmHouse. The Development Fund runs every other year and will resume in 2021.
Are science fiction films allowed to apply to the Sloan Fellowship or the Sloan Development Fund?

Science fiction films are defined as projects that incorporate fictional elements that expand beyond today’s scientific capabilities and are not eligible to apply for any of SFFILM’s Sloan opportunities.
What is the FilmHouse residency and is it mandatory?

All filmmakers selected for the Sloan Fellowship must complete a residency period of eight weeks. The 8 weeks do not need to be contiguous, and can be completed in 2-week trips. The residency does not include living arrangements, but is an open workspace at SFFILM’s FilmHouse office. The residency includes peer-to-peer engagement with SFFILM’s year-round residents and feedback sessions, one-on-one meetings with expert advisors working in various sectors of the film industry, space to work from including a quiet screenwriting room and editing suite, year-round programming including talks, workshops, table reads, and work-in-progress screenings, and support from SFFILM’s Artist Development team.
How much science does my film have to include to be eligible?

Eligible films for both Sloan opportunities must portray scientific or technological themes at their center that directly drive the story arc and/or character development forward. Films with peripheral scientific characters or ideas will not be competitive.
What is the Stories of Science Sourcebook? Will the articles included change between grant cycles?

The Stories of Science Sourcebook compiles compelling reported articles and momentous recent discoveries in the scientific and technological fields. Applicants must choose a story or discovery from the Sourcebook to apply for this grant. Filmmakers who are already working on similar stories may apply, but must still be in the early development stage and must not yet have a script draft. Articles and discoveries chosen for previous grant cycles will be removed from the sourcebook, and additional articles and discoveries will be added to reflect the ever changing scientific and technological landscape.
When will the Sloan Stories of Science Development Fund Reopen?

The Sloan Stories of Science Development Fund operates every two years and will reopen again in the Spring of 2021.
Are there other Sloan opportunities for filmmaking?

Yes! The Alfred P. Sloan Foundation offers many film grants through various organizations and universities across the country. You can find a complete offering through their Grants Database.

FAQs

Do I need to live in the Bay Area to be eligible for the SFFILM Doc Film Fund grant?

No. The SFFILM Doc Film Fund is open to filmmakers based anywhere in the U.S. or internationally.
What stage does this fund support?

The SFFILM Doc Film Fund supports feature-length documentaries in post-production. While we know the documentary production process is often nonlinear with various stages happening at the same time, a project must be within about 3 months of beginning post-production from the final deadline.
What should my visual sample include?

We recommend sending 1-2 scenes so that the review committee can get a sense of the story and characters and if it can sustain a feature length film, your access to the central subjects, and the artistic voice and direction of the film. We recommend sending the scene(s) you feel most strongly portray these elements in lieu of a trailer. We understand the scenes will be in progress and do not expect them to be picture locked, color corrected, or finalized in any way.

If you have a longer sample already cut, you are welcome to send that. If you send materials over 10 minutes, we cannot guarantee that the review committee will be able to watch more than the first five minutes of the materials you send. If you do not want the first five minutes to be watched, please include the timecode of the five minutes you would like the committee to watch.
What types of films does this fund support?

The SFFILM Doc Film Fund supports a range of films from around the world. Films do not have to have a strong social issue and most often do not have that at the center of the film. The fund supports documentaries that exhibit compelling stories, intriguing characters and an innovative visual approach. Recent examples of this include Honeyland, Hale County This Morning, This Evening, Midnight Family, The Feeling of Being Watched, Midnight Traveler, and Cutie and the Boxer.
How many projects are granted each year?

The Documentary Film Fund grants its support to approximately 3 projects each year with grants of $20,000.
When are applicants notified?

All applicants will be notified of their status through the SFFILM grant platform by mid-November.
