Hello Filmmakers!

Cycle 3 of the Bipolaroid Film Fund is officially open! 🎬

First of all, thank you to everyone who waited so patiently over the past few months. We know many of you have been preparing projects and looking forward to the next cycle, and we truly appreciate your understanding while we took the time to regroup and make some important changes behind the scenes. We're happy to finally be back and excited to start reading your stories again.

If you're an independent Filipino filmmaker or film student with a short film project you'd like to bring to life, we'd love to hear from you.

As always, Bipolaroid provides financial support and equipment assistance to help emerging filmmakers tell the stories that matter to them.

📅 Submission Period: July 1 – July 31, 2026 (11:59 PM PHT)
After submissions close, our selection committee will carefully review every application. The selected recipients will be announced on September 1, 2026.

Whether you're applying for the first time or returning with a new project, thank you for trusting us with your work. We can't wait to see what you've been creating.

You can find the application form here: https://forms.gle/WU3CKezU3YVF2ymC9

Good luck to everyone, and welcome back to another Bipolaroid cycle. 💛

Quick update, Filmmakers

There will be no Cycle 2 for 2026. Over the past months, we’ve been making a number of internal adjustments and taking a closer look at how we can keep Bipolaroid sustainable and consistent in the long run. Because of this, we’ve decided to pause for this cycle and give the team the time and space needed to properly recalibrate.

We know that many of you plan the financing of your projects around these cycles, and we don’t take that lightly. This wasn’t an easy decision, but it’s one we felt was necessary to make sure that when we do support films, we can do so in a more stable and thoughtful way.

The good news is that we will be back for Cycle 3 this July, and submissions will open as scheduled. We’re looking forward to seeing what you’ve all been working on and continuing to support new stories and voices.

Thank you, as always, for your patience, your trust, and your support. 🎥❤️
