1 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Melanie Bates, Film Independent or Ryan Collins, Ginsberg/Libby Tel: or FILM INDEPENDENT ANNOUNCES THE 2018 FAST TRACK PROJECTS AND AWARDS $60K IN ALFRED P. SLOAN GRANTS AT THE LA FILM FESTIVAL NEW PARTNERSHIP WITH INTERNATIONAL DOCUMENTARY ASSOCIATION LOS ANGELES (September 18, 2018) Today Film Independent announced the 15 projects and 28 filmmakers selected for the 16th annual Fast Track film finance market. Held during the LA Film Festival, Fast Track helps producer-director teams advance their projects through meetings with top industry executives financiers, agents, managers, distributors, production companies, and granting organizations. During three days of intensive meetings, participants build vital industry relationships and gain valuable exposure for their projects as they fast track their films towards completion. Film Independent continues to expand its support of the non-fiction filmmaking community and will hold a doc-focused track of the finance market where five selected feature documentary teams will meet with industry specifically working in the non-fiction space. In partnership with the International Documentary Association, Fast Track Doc Fellows will also participate in the Getting Real conference s Real Talks industry meetings. At the annual Film Independent Fellows and Alfred P. Sloan Reception on September 21, 2018, Film Independent will present three Sloan Foundation supported grants totaling $60,000 to film and television projects that explore science and technology themes or that depict scientists, engineers and mathematicians in engaging and innovative ways. The ninth annual Alfred P. Sloan Fast Track Grant, a $20,000 production grant, will be awarded to writer/producer Jenny Halper and producer Kate
2 Sharp for their fiction feature film Burning Season; the 12th annual Alfred P. Sloan Producers Grant, a $30,000 development grant, will be awarded to producer Clay Pruitt for his fiction feature Bell; and the second annual Alfred P. Sloan Episodic Lab Grant, a $10,000 development grant, will be awarded to Mirella Christou for her pilot Seven Eternities. We are honored to continue our partnership with the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation to support filmmakers who look to science for inspiration. When artistic expression meets scientific inquiry, what emerges is great storytelling that explores in profound and nuanced ways what it means to be human, said Jennifer Kushner, Film Independent s Director of Artist Development. Through this synergistic partnership with IDA s Getting Real and by taking more documentary projects into Fast Track this year, we are continuing to expand Film Independent s support for non-fiction filmmakers, adding to a robust slate of programs that include a Documentary Lab and Fiscal Sponsorship program. We are delighted to continue our wonderful partnership with Film Independent in supporting a feature film production grant for Burning Season and development grants for the feature Bell and for the television series Seven Eternities, said Doron Weber, Vice President and Program Director at the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. All three science-themed stories about a mother-daughter relationship and endangered lemurs in Madagascar, a brilliant but flawed American inventor and the challenges of deafness and deaf culture, and the controversial science and heady days of psychedelic drugs the in the sixties have come through our nationwide film pipeline and draw inspiration from the dramatic encounter between human beings and nature.

Sloan Foundation, founded in 1934, is a non-profit philanthropy that makes grants for original research and education in science, technology, and economic performance. Sloan's program in Public Understanding of Science and Technology, directed by Doron Weber, supports books, radio, film, television, theater and new media to reach a wide, non-specialized audience and to bridge the two cultures of science and the humanities. Sloan's Film Program encourages filmmakers to create more realistic and compelling stories about science and technology and to challenge existing stereotypes about scientists and engineers in the popular imagination. Over the past two decades, Sloan has partnered with some of the top film schools in the country including AFI, Carnegie Mellon, Columbia, NYU, UCLA and USC and established annual awards in screenwriting and film production, along with an annual best-of-the best Student Grand Jury Prize administered by the Tribeca Film Institute. The Foundation also supports screenplay development programs with the Sundance Institute, Tribeca Film Institute, the San Francisco Film Society, the Black List, and Film Independent's Producing Lab and Fast Track program and has helped develop such film projects as Shawn Snyder's To Dust, Ben Lewin's The Catcher Was a Spy, Morten Tyldum's The Imitation Game, Matthew Brown's The Man Who Knew Infinity, and Michael Almereyda's Experimenter. The Foundation has also supported theatrical documentaries such as the recently released Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story, Particle Fever, and Jacques Perrin's Oceans. The Foundation has an active theater program and commissions about twenty science plays each year from the Ensemble Studio Theatre, Manhattan Theatre Club, and the National Theatre, as well as supporting select productions across the country and abroad. Recent grants have supported Lucy Kirkwood's Mosquitoes, recently at the National Theatre in London, Chiara Atik's BUMP, Nick Payne's Constellations, Lucas Hnath's Isaac's Eye, and Anna Ziegler's Photograph 51. The Foundation's book program includes early support for Hidden Figures: The American Dream and the Untold Story of the Black Women Mathematicians Who Helped Win the Space Race, the highest grossing Oscar-nominated film of 2017 and the recipient of the Sloan Science in Cinema Prize at the San Francisco Film Society.
