Announcing the UFVF Faculty Research and Production Award!

The University Film and Video Foundation is excited to announce the first annual UFVF Faculty Research and Production Award! This new award supports the work of University Film and Video Association member scholars, media-makers, and scriptwriters by providing financial support for continued scholarly and artistic achievement.

“The Foundation has been working toward this moment for a long time,” said Simon Tarr, President of the University Film and Video Foundation. “From developing the funding, working with our colleagues at the UFVA, and crafting the vision of the award, this is our first new funded award in nearly thirty years. We’re so happy to be able to support exciting new work that media faculty are creating.”

For the inaugural awards of up to $5000, any member of the University Film and Video Association can submit a proposal to support new scholarly works, screenplays, media productions, and many types of creative research. Proposals are due on March 15, 2021.
