I am searching for forums/website where I can collaborate with shia creative professionals. They can be from any field and can have any expertise. For instance Documentary filmmakers, photographers, writers, journalists, bloggers, graphic designers etc. There is a lot of room for us to do the right work that tells the world who we are and communicate the message of Imam a.s. I have several projects that I can work on if I can get someone to produce the project. Can someone point me in the right direction? Also Im hoping to find someone who would like to collaborate with me to apply for the TFI Media Fund as given below. @voiceofqaim ABOUT The TFI New Media Fund provides funding and support to non-fiction, social issue media projects which go beyond traditional screens – integrating film with content across media platforms, from video games and mobile apps to social networks and interactive websites.
