Towards a New Generation of Fulldome Films

The SAT, Hubblo, and SODEC are joining forces to launch a call for projects to support the production of new audiovisual formats. This call is aimed at local producers for the development of an original fulldome film with strong commercial potential both in Quebec and internationally.

The main objective is to stimulate the production of Quebec fulldome films by identifying innovative and promising projects likely to have a significant impact on the market, both locally and globally.

As the demand for original immersive content continues to grow worldwide, this initiative supports the development of a new generation of fulldome creations capable of reaching a wide audience.

The selected project will benefit from:

• A guaranteed minimum of CAD 50,000, including CAD 10,000 for promotion and distribution, from the immersive content distributor Hubblo:
• A non-repayable grant of CAD 50,000 from the Société de développement des entreprises culturelles (SODEC):
• An in-kind contribution and services valued at CAD 50,000 provided by the Société des arts technologiques (SAT).

• Producers must submit a balanced preliminary budget along with a funding structure.
