What kind of criteria will foundations use to assess the documentary?
Foundations and grantmakers will assess documentary proposals according to the fit with the priorities of the foundation. A foundation is looking for ways to motivate and sustain social change and therefore the outreach or impact of a program is of utmost importance. They will assess the documentary with the same set of criteria they use to assess any project that comes to them, according to their guidelines, aims and objectives. Visit the Philanthropy Australia web site to explore the links to Foundation web sites in Australia. These will highlight the criteria for each individual Foundation along with their areas of interest.
