Mozilla has committed an initial amount of $25,000 to fund the pilot episode, with an additional $75,000 for the remaining episodes. Mozilla is also leveraging the considerable visibility of projects like FireFox and Drumbeat to its crowdsourcing strategy – we are targeting $50,000 in donations for 2010 from our passionate users and developers. We are specifically looking for The Good Pitch to support outreach activities that will enhance this opportunity. | |||
We are also working closely with EyeSteelFilm to secure broadcast licenses from International Broadcasters and have begun discussions with VPro (Netherlands), YLE (Finland), DR (Denmark), Documentary Chanell (US), CanalD (Canada) TVP (Poland) and SVT (Sweden). EyeSteelFilm is also eligible to access public Canadian funds and has worked extensively with the National Film Board of Canada, who is keen to sponsor both content and software development for the project. | |||
