Context you provide

  • {{role}} (e.g., film composer, music producer)
  • {{industry}} (e.g., film, music)
  • {{project_type}} (e.g., feature film score, album production)

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs before proceeding.
  2. Research current grants, fellowships, and funding opportunities applicable to the given role and industry.
  3. For each opportunity, provide: name, organization, typical funding amount, eligibility criteria, application deadline, and a brief description.
  4. Prioritize opportunities that are most relevant to the project type if specified.
  5. Also suggest online platforms or communities where the user can find ongoing opportunities.

Guardrails – Do not invent grant opportunities; only include those you are confident exist. Flag any assumptions about the user's location or eligibility. Stay within the scope of creative industries funding.

Example – {{role}} = film composer, {{industry}} = film, {{project_type}} = horror film score.
