Applicants will be notified of their status by mid-November.
Am I eligible if I have a full-time job?
Applicants who work Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm are not ideal candidates for this residency as 90% of the program takes place during these times. If you are still interested in coming to any programming we have in the evening, we recommend becoming an SFFILM member with a Filmmaker Add-On.
How many days a week should I plan to work from FilmHouse?
FilmHouse is open to residents at all times, but residents are required to work from FilmHouse at least two half-days each week when not shooting on their film.
Do I need to live in the Bay Area?
Yes, all residents must reside full-time in the Bay Area.
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.
