- Grant Description
- NEH supports television documentary programs or historical dramatizations that address significant figures, events, or developments in the humanities and draw their content from humanities scholarship. Projects must be intended for national distribution during prime time hours, whether on public television, commercial television, or cable networks. Support is also available for DVDs and Web sites that expand the content of the television program. To ensure that the humanities themes and questions are well conceived, projects should use a team of scholars who are from major fields relevant to the subject matter and have diverse perspectives and approaches. Scripting grants can be used to prepare a script or detailed treatment. Before applying, applicants should have a solid command of the humanities scholarship about the subject and have consulted with a team of scholarly advisers to work out the intellectual issues the program will explore. Applicants should also have drafted a preliminary treatment that provides a concept for the storyline or narrative of the program, identified the principal materials available for production, and begun to think about how they will integrate the analysis and interpretive content into the storyline. Finally, they should have identified the producer, director, and scriptwriter.
