Apply Now for IFP’s Rio Market Fellowship

The IFP / Rio Market Fellowship is a week-long program which runs concurrently with the Rio International Film Festival in October 2012. Conceived to boost international co-productions and encourage production in Latin America, the fellowship with LATC will be offering many formal and informal networking opportunities specific to our IFP delegation to assist U.S. producers in finding partners for their projects and expanding their international contacts.

IFP will select up to three American independent producers to participate in their Rio Market; Open to emerging and established feature producers and filmmakers, the Fellowship will cover the cost of full program registration fees and 4 nights hotel accommodations for the selected participants (airfare not included).

Applicants should have at least one feature-film producing credit and be a current IFP member. Applicants should clearly state why they are interested in participating by citing either a history of Latin American co-production experience OR current projects in their slate that require Latin American and/or Spanish Language co-production partners. Documentary and Narrative producers are welcome.

If you – or someone you know – is interested in consideration for the program should apply with a one-page letter of interest describing the project(s) that would be presented and a resume to Amy Dotson, Deputy Director, IFP, at adotson@ifp.org by Tuesday, August 14th.
