2026 My World Film Grant Application

Ends on

In an effort to contribute to filmmaker pathways and to develop environmental filmmaking talent, Amberjack Films and Schoolyard Films, in partnership with Jackson Wild, have created a program of funded scholarship films, where early-stage filmmakers are sponsored to make a short 10 to 20 minute film on a nature or environmental story wherever they come from in the world. 

The ambition is to support young filmmakers and give them the basic financial support to direct and produce a film, mentor them through the editorial process, and encourage them to distribute their film to best effect, both to maximize audience and to create local impact through screenings and school access to their films. These films will amplify the voices of young filmmakers around the world, spreading talent and skills while showcasing authentic voices irrespective of gender, ethnicity, or disability.
