Screen Australia invests in Thomas Mai and Josh Pomeranz’s FanDependent

Thomas Mai and Josh Pomeranz of Spectrum 2.0 are the recipients of Screen Australia’s latest round of the Innovation Distribution program.

Mai and Pomeranz’s FanDependent is a platform to support low-budget screen content that doesn’t fit into the traditional distribution and exhibition model.

The platform will partner with 10 filmmaker teams over two years to help build an audience and raise finance through crowd-funding.

Selected teams will then be supported to market, sell and release their low-budget project to maximise commercial potential and audience.
