Awards may range between $500 - $3,000, and can be used to cover the cost of a specific camera, a software package, or other creative use.

• Eligibility: Senior Communication students, graduating in Spring or Summer 
• Application Details: The application is typically made available each year in late Winter Quarter. 
• Applications will be reviewed by the Jump Cutters Production Fellowship Committee, with awards to be announced by the end of Spring Quarter.

Recipients may also be asked to publicly screen, play or exhibit their work at a departmental event.
