GRANT

GRANT OVERVIEW

The Television Production Grant invests in television projects with commercial intent that shoot in Saskatchewan and/or employ Saskatchewan-based crew during production and post-production.

OUR INVESTMENT

  • Our financial investment is based on the amount of money the production spends in Saskatchewan and on Saskatchewan crew as per our Eligible Saskatchewan-Spend Expenses Policy.

  • Our investment is either 25% or 30% of those eligible Saskatchewan expenditures, dependent on the level of Saskatchewan-based ownership of the project (see the Official Grant Guidelines for complete details), to a maximum of $600,000 per project.

  • This grant will be closed when total funds are exhausted for the fiscal year.

OFFICIAL GRANT GUIDELINES

  • All applicants must read the Official Grant Guidelines. The official guidelines supercede all information contained elsewhere on this website, delivered to applicants by Program Officers, or otherwise made publicly available.
  • All applicants must read the General Program Guidelines, which contains important details that apply to all Creative Saskatchewan grants.



AFTER YOU'RE APPROVED

  • 80% of the approved funds are provided to successful applicants on the first day of principal photography of the project.
  • The remaining 20%, or a smaller amount based on an audit of actual Saskatchewan expenditures, will be provided after the submission, review and approval of a final report from the producer.
  • Completed projects with budgets under $250k are required to provide a cost declaration as part of the final report.
  • Completed projects with budgets over $250k are required to deliver audited financials as part of the final report.



APPLICATION PROCESSING TIME

Applicants can expect to receive results within 4 weeks from application acceptance date.
Results will be delivered via e-mail, and will be available in GMS.
