@CaribenxMarciaX how about some tags like...

#Captions
#CaptionsHelp
#DocumentaryFilm
#FilmOpportunity
#SeekingHelpWithFilm

And also clarify for the readers, are you looking for a grant to cover this? Are you offering to pay someone once you receive a grant? If so...

#Grant
#GrantWriting
#SexWorkGrantWriting
#BlackSexWorkGrantWriting

And just generally tease it out that way. That's what I would do. Formalize it a little into something someone could picture themselves co-creating.

Grant writing for the win!

@CaribenxMarciaX I think you could DEFINITELY get grant money for this. I'm not a grant writer but I know a good bet when I see one.

@CaribenxMarciaX this is the top level site in the United States (by way of example), but there a lot of smaller and more regional ones depending on where you are. arts.gov/grants

@CaribenxMarciaX grants allow artists to create paid jobs … just a thought…

@CaribenxMarciaX another thought is that with a grant, comes automatic press and publicity which would be great for this documentary. Others do the promo because they want to amplify their grant winners. So it’s more leg work up front, but worth it in the long run. If not for this project then maybe the next one.
