Film i Väst, a leading Swedish regional film fund, has decided to build a database with basic information on available public funding for features, documentaries and TV series in Europe. We have learned over the years that producers, production companies and other funds lack an effective short cut to information at the beginning of the financing process of a project. They have good knowledge of their own territories but have limited knowledge and experience about possibilities in other markets. As co-production between countries and regions is essential to this industry, a simple toolbox like this is most necessary. Find more information about Film i Väst here: filmivast.com.
