As we battle COVID-19, there are stories to be told about Singapore – as a destination, as a home that we love, and as a place where our passions shine through. The Singapore Tourism Board wants to empower content creators in Singapore and around the world to tell these stories.
How does the funding work? The Fund will support 90% of qualifying costs, capped at S$150,000 per project*.
This includes project-related in-house and third party costs**.
What content is eligible? Content should be on destination Singapore, in digital video format, to enable wider distribution.
Content should creatively demonstrate the themes of Strength, Resilience, Solidarity or Unity.
Singapore can be featured through the lens of Arts, Sports, Entertainment, Food, Sightseeing and/or Shopping.
How do I go about applying? The application window is from 1 May – 31 May 2020.
Content creators should take advantage of the circuit breaker period to plan their submissions.
More details including the application form and FAQs can be found on go.gov.sg/sgstories
*Each project could take the form of one or a series of videos
How will my proposal be assessed? All projects will be evaluated on two key areas; strength of storytelling and feasibility of project.
Projects should clearly articulate creative concept and execution.
Short-form digital content is preferred and a detailed marketing and distribution plan is encouraged.
During the Circuit Breaker period from 7 April 2020 to 4 May 2020, all outdoor filming is prohibited and all content must be produced at home. Outdoor shots can only be taken if allowed under prevailing guidelines on safe distancing, which all applicants must strictly adhere to. IMPORTANT!
