One Time Video Grants

As a measure to support Peace-Liard artists during the Covid-19 pandemic, the PLRAC has initiated a one-time grant program.

The purpose of the one-time Regional Development Video Grants is to encourage artists of all disciplines to create a video that informs or demonstrates a technique related to their practice to be shared publicly online.

Here’s how it works:

Deadline for Application: April 10, 2020

Eligibility

  1. Must be a resident or organization residing in northeast BC or be a member of an arts council in northeast BC
  2. Submit an idea for a video that describes your artistic process, a project you are working on, or a demonstration of a technique related to your practice
  3. All artistic disciplines are eligible to apply (e.g. visual art, film making, writing, songwriting)

Assessment Criteria
The committee will base its decision on the assessment criteria listed below:

  1. A clear objective of what will be shared in the video
  2. Evidence of the applicant’s ability to carry out the video
  3. Applications will be reviewed on a first come first reviewed basis, but not all applications will necessarily be approved.
  4. Applicants will be reviewed based on their proposal for a video.
  5. Once approved, applicants will receive ½ of the grant ($100) and will have two weeks to complete the video
  6. Once the PLRAC has received the video, the remainder of the grant ($100) will be awarded.

Acknowledgement of PLRAC Support
Successful applicants will have their videos promoted as a Peace Liard Regional Arts Council initiative. The PLRAC logo will be added to the video and a waiver form will need to be signed.
