The British Sign Language Broadcasting Trust, through their Zoom Short Film Scheme, is inviting applications from British deaf directors and deaf writer/directors. The scheme aims to support the production of 6 short films, and will provide successful filmmakers with:

£2,000 of funding to make a short film up to 15 minutes in length
the opportunity to work with Neath Films to make their film
standard production insurance cover
production support
post production support including offline edit, grade and online edit.

Films of any genre will be considered, but films must be suitable for viewing by all ages, and must be in British sign language. The deadline for applications is the 17th September 2010. For more information visit: http://www.bslbt.co.uk/zoom/
