The Liaison of Independent Filmmakers of Toronto (LIFT) is seeking
residency applications from international artists for 2-6 week individual
production residencies to take place between fall 2008 and spring 2009.
LIFT is a member-driven non-profit organization that provides affordable
access to equipment, education and space for those who want to make films,
out of a passion for, and commitment to, the practice of filmmaking on
celluloid. We offer a wide range of film based technologies ranging from
8mm, Super 8, 16mm, Super 16mm, and 35mm production equipment, editing
equipment, optical printers, contact printers, animation stands, a
darkroom and more. Toronto also offers a wide range of lab facilities,
including Niagara Custom Lab, which can meet nearly any film-related need.
LIFT’s residency program focuses on the production of film-based works
with equipment and facilities to which the artist would not have access in
their local region. Artists are expected to be at an established point in
their practice (although not necessarily working predominantly with film).
Applicants should also consider what they would bring to the Toronto
community in terms of community collaboration, teaching, artist talks
and/or presentation activities.

The maximum cash funding for projects is $3,000 (CND) for travel,
accommodation and per diems. Equipment and facilities will be provided by
LIFT to a maximum of $5,000 (CDN), LIFT equipment rates can be found at
www.lift.on.ca. The artist is responsible for the costs of all film stock,
chemicals, lab fees and other expendables.

Interested artists should submit proposals, including:
• Proposal/Artist statement (including how they intend to engage the local
community during their stay and how coming to LIFT will create access to
equipment or facilities not available at their home location)
• curriculum vitæ
• Proposed budget (including funding sources for materials)
• Visual support material of past work (do not send originals,
documentation will not be returned).

Interdisciplinary projects are welcome, however film (celluloid) must play
a central role in the project. Applicants should have an established
artistic practice, although artists previously working in other media are
welcome. Applicants are not required to be English speakers however all
applications must be submitted in English.

Submissions must be received by mail no later than April 15, 2008.
Proposals are submitted on the understanding that the project’s execution
is contingent on funding yet to be secured.
