Channels - Stories from the Niagara Frontier 08

Call for applications for filmmakers and grassroots initiatives

Deadline: Monday, February 4, 2008

Channels - Stories from the Niagara Frontier is Squeaky Wheel’s production
program which matches documentary filmmakers with grass roots initiatives
and groups that effectively address one of these three focus areas:

* Increase Economic Self-Sufficiency
* Reduce Racial Disparities
* Protect and Enhance Environmental Resources

Channels addresses the need to educate people about these issues in their
communities through the powerful medium of documentary film.

Selected documentary filmmakers receive a stipend of $ 2,000 and access to
Squeaky Wheel’s production and editing equipment to produce their projects.
Project starts in March 2008, and all documentaries should be finished by
November 2008.
