Congratulations to the Tisch alumni who won a Spring 2020 SFFILM Rainin Grant in support of the next stage of their creative process, from screenwriting to post-production.
SFFILM, in partnership with the Kenneth Rainin Foundation, is the largest granting body for independent narrative feature films in the United States, and has awarded over $5 million to more than 100 projects since its inception. SFFILM Rainin Grants are awarded twice annually to filmmakers whose narrative feature films will have significant economic or professional impact on the Bay Area filmmaking community and/or meaningfully explore pressing social issues.
