America’s Media Makers: Development Grants (CFDA
No. 45.164) – Grants for America’s Media Makers support
media projects that explore significant events, figures, or
developments in the humanities and offer creative and new
approaches to humanities content. America’s Media Makers
projects promote active exploration and engagement for broad
public audiences in history, literature, archaeology, art history,
comparative religion, philosophy, and other fields of the
humanities.
Development grants enable media producers to collaborate
with scholars to develop the humanities content and format
and to prepare programs for production. The product
of development grants should be the refinement of the
humanities ideas, a script, or a design document for (or a
prototype of) digital media components or projects, or a
prototype for a digital media project together with a detailed
plan for outreach and public engagement in collaboration with
partner organizations.

America’s Media Makers: Production Grants (CFDA
No. 45.164) – Production grants support the preparation of
a program for distribution. Applicants must submit a script
for a radio or television program or a prototype or storyboard
for a digital media project that demonstrates a solid command
of the humanities ideas and scholarship about the subject.
The script for a radio or television program or prototype
or storyboard for a digital media project should also show
how the narrative elements, visual approach, and interactive
design combine to present the humanities ideas. Applicants
must have consulted with the appropriate scholars about the
project and obtained their commitment as advisers. Finally,
applicants must have recruited the media team, including at
a minimum the producer, director, writer, and, for a digital
media project, the interactive designer.
