Financing Short Films (For Anyone Who Thinks They Can’t!)

  • Tue 25 Feb 18:00-18:45

    Financing Short Films (For Anyone Who Thinks They Can’t!)

    Online

As the BFI NEWTORK short film fund re-opens, we’ve set up this 45-min webinar to help inspire and encourage producers in the south west of England to not give up on your project despite how hard it is to raise funds and balance budgets in the current financial climate.

Our guest speaker Anna Duff will outline the pros and cons of some typical routes for financing short films, such as public funders; private schemes; crowdfunding; product placement; co-production and private donation – so you’ll be sure to leave the session with some great ideas and sound advice.

This session is aimed at producers financing shorts between £5-45k for the first time, or producers looking for ways to cover gaps in their finance plan.

Registration is free but places are limited. The Zoom link will be emailed to you on booking, please check your junk/spam folders.
