GET ON SET is a South Carolina Film Commission production grant offered through the University of South Carolina. It supports low-budget narrative features across genres and provides support throughout selected productions, potentially including access to Trident Technical College film equipment and other resources from grant partners.
The grant is connected to the SC Film Production Fund’s goal of bringing motion-picture professionals together with South Carolina colleges and students. These collaborations develop film, video, and multimedia projects while building industry knowledge and skills in the state. Independent evaluators consider script quality and whether a proposed production is feasible within the grant’s parameters.
