This previous year, we awarded a total of $110,000 towards miscellaneous pre-production needs and screenplay development to five projects.
Past projects that have received funding for screenplay development through the TFI/Sloan Partnership include outstanding screenplays about Rosalind Franklin, Hedy Lamarr, Richard Feynman, Edwin Hubble and Ramanujan, as well as many comedies.
