Review Criteria

Our funding panel will use the following guidelines in awarding funds:

• Is the story idea compelling, engaging, original and well-conceived?
• Is the visual/stylistic treatment effective and distinctive?
• Can the project be completed within a realistic timeline based on the applicant’s production and fundraising plans, personnel and budget?
• Will the project appeal not only to Asian American viewers, but also to a broader television audience?
• Does the sample tape show the skills and/or potential of the applicant to complete the proposed project?
• CAAM attempts to support diversity in projects. Has CAAM recently funded a similar topic, issue or treatment?
