And finally some good news about the UK Film Industry!
“The biggest change recently with regard to the UK being a destination for co-production has been the UK Global Screen Fund,” [MacTaggart] suggests. “That has made a real difference as it’s the first money in almost 25 years that the British system has had on offer to incoming co-productions.”
The number of minority UK co-productions has leapt up since this BFI-administered fund was launched three years ago. The fund has supported recent features such as Laszlo Nemes’ Orphan and Danish director Max Kestner’s Life And Other Problems, which opened CPH:DOX in March. The fund has limited resources but, says Perry, it has already “opened the eyes of people overseas to the fact Britain was much more welcoming and could offer something much more tangible to an incoming production”.
But it is the IFTC that is cutting through to international producers. Nicky Bentham, founder of Neon Films, with credits including The Duke, says her European colleagues are “beginning to notice the UK tax credit is really competitive”.
Are you working on a co-production with a European partner? Have you noticed a difference in the market yet?

there are many stats that say fb advertising is best for crowdfunding but I’ve always found Twitter to be better. it’s constant posting for 60 days. there’s a trick to it and when you get half way ish you get super backers. they like you or your story.

Expand commentThe key to successfully raising your budget on crowdfunding is to have a core base to go to on launch date, along with a compelling campaign. Most of your money will come from friends, family, colleagues, etc. Not random people and not other filmmakers. Also, I'd ask yourself if you can do the film for 5-10k, as that's an easier goal than 15-25k. I'd spend at least 2-3 months on pre-launch prep / building a following to reach out to. Either way, best wishes to you!!
It is not just montetizing your YT chanel, but marketing yourself and content Jane Sanger have a great weekend.
