The grant will provide start-up and completion funds to qualifying narrative or documentary projects written, directed or produced by trans creators.The grant is open to all transgender people, the center’s founder and executive director Sav Rodgers said.
There will be two selected grant recipients, who will each receive $1,500 toward their films. While projects do not necessarily need to center on trans identity to be eligible, they must be spearheaded by transgender people to.
