BravoFACT
BravoFACT (Foundation to Assist Canadian Talent) was a Canadian fund that ran continuously from 1995 to 2017. It was established to fund the creation of Canadian arts-based short films and videos. BravoFACT funded shorts from various subject matters, genres and styles including animation, drama, comedy, dance, and more. BravoFACT was established in 1995 by Bravo, a Canadian specialty television channel devoted to the arts, as a condition of licence. The fund was supported entirely by Bravo, and the supported projects aired on Bravo! weekly, on BravoFACT Presents.
