Work for All is a new media project put together by the NFB and Human Resources Social Development Canada. It is meant to inform the public of the obstacles that visible minorities and Aboriginal people face in their careers and highlight the strategies used to create success and eliminate those obstacles. The project is currently seeking proposals for short films (5 – 15 min) with the theme of racism in the workplace.


In collaboration with Human Resources Social Development Canada, Work for All aims to be a powerful tool for education and positive social change.

 

Some possible themes for the proposals include:

  • Seeking employment
  • Accessing education and training
  • Getting promoted
  • Job retention
  • Using foreign credentials
  • Stereotypes and work environment obstacles
  • Economic situations distinct to a particular region
  • Successful strategies

Submission requirements:

  • 1- to  3-page proposal
  • Director's CV
  • Demo of previous directing work (DVD or Web site)

Proposals should include a story idea, character treatment and ideas for visual storytelling. Work for All is a national project that will represent the diverse problems from the different regions of Canada. Submissions are accepted in English or French.

Deadline for submissions is March 16, 2009.
