Special initiatives
The First Nations Department allocates funds to initiatives designed to address specific developmental objectives.
The First Nations Creators Program aims to foster Indigenous talent, amplify their voices online and help create long term career prospects for First Nations creators in social media and digital content creation.
Proper Loved Up is a new program combining previous short film and producer initiatives. It is a great opportunity for emerging filmmakers (writers and directors) to launch their careers and for mid-career producers to gain further practical experience, producing a short film in the Romantic Comedy genre, and grow their slate of projects with at least one pitch-ready film (not the short film) to take to both local and international markets.
