CMF Predevelopment Program – Letter of Interest

We are now accepting requests for the Letter of Interest required by the Canada Media Fund (CMF) Predevelopment Program. Alberta Film has the ability to provide a maximum of 2 letters of interest for the predevelopment. Due to the number of requests for letters of interest and the quality of the projects submitted, it was determined the fairest method of decision was a randomized selection following a basic eligibility review. We will follow the same process this year.

All requests must be received prior to 11:59 pm, on Monday, June 7, 2021 and must include the following to be considered:

• proof that applicant corporation is registered and in good standing with the Alberta Corporate Registry
• documentation showing that a writing agreement is in place
• project information including:
  • a brief synopsis, genre and format of the project
  • listing of the creative talent attached or intended to participate in the project
  • proof or confirmation that the applicant owns all rights and options necessary for development and production of the project
  • a budget and financing plan
  • project development schedule

Only requests for projects that meet minimum eligibility for the CMF Predevelopment Program will be considered. Full program information is available on the CMF website. Please ensure that you have fully reviewed the program guidelines published on the CMF website to determine if you are eligible. As we do not have additional information about the program, our decisions are based on our interpretation of the published guidelines only, and CMF may make a different determination for project eligibility.

Your request, including all supporting documentation listed above, should be emailed to [email protected] prior to our June 7 deadline.

We will not be following up for missing information, all requests will be reviewed as submitted. Once a selection is made all requesters will be notified by email if their request was successful or not.
