The Independent Television Serivce (ITVS) is currently accepting submisisons for their "International Call" initiative that enables independent producers from outside of the United States to create documentaries for U.S. television. ITVS is seeking programs that bring international perspectives, ideas, events and people to the U.S. market. Specifically, content that represents diverse communities and advances underrepresented points of view; that explore globally significant themes to inspire public dialogue. Ideally, programs that have already begun production and can be realistically completed within one year of contract; and co-production projects with either international broadcast partners or co-productions with producers from different countries.
International Call funds must be used as production completion funds for the project. The range of production funds offered for each project will vary.
Deadline: February 1, 2008
