Project details

What we need
  • A compilation of research on a specific topic (e.g. industry best practices, literature review, media contacts, industry trends, etc.) including a list of sources
  • Recommendations on areas for further exploration/research
  • Note: This project is not designed to be used for prospect or grant research
Additional details

We need to build a list of queer studies professors in the U.S. We have a new LGBTQIA film we are releasing that would be of interest to professors needing examples of high quality film independent film in the classroom.

It's not a shot in the dark search. We have a list of schools we are specifically looking at for this.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a list of librarians focused on queer studies., which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have done a similar project in the past, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $5,239 , allowing us to focus on developing works from underrepresented artists and reach audiences craving new perspectives.

Independent films struggle to get in front of the audience they are intended for. Our social impact films are designed to challenge traditional Hollywood narratives and present new perspectives.
