Feature Film Development– Ffilm Cymru Wales
Ffilm Cymru Wales develops live-action, documentary, and animated feature films for cinema audiences led by Wales born or based writers, directors, and producers.
Their development fund combines National Lottery funds delegated via the Arts Council of Wales and the British Film Institute via the BFI NETWORK.
They want to put Welsh film on the map by nurturing independent Welsh films, which are unconventional, ambitious, and well-crafted. They particularly want to champion underrepresented voices in film and to push the boundaries of what we know as Welsh film. They welcome co-productions, work in British Sign Language, the Welsh language, and other minority languages, as well as projects, which experiment with form and style.
The updated development fund combines their previous Horizons development fund for emerging talent with their development fund for established talent. This will allow them to channel more funds toward emerging talent and to make rounded decisions on what each project and team needs.
