Screen Australia offers grants to India
Screen Australia has announced grant offerings for producers to attend an Indian film convention.
Travel grants up to $2,500 are available to producers with advanced projects to attend the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) Frames Convention in Mumbai, 14-16 March.
Producers of TV, animation, documentary, digital and mobile content creators seeking to expand relationships in India for potential co-productions, investment and sales opportunities can apply.
Preference will be given to applicants with at least one project in advanced development suitable for this market. They will also need to provide a strong market strategy outlining their argument for attendance, desired outcomes and an understanding of the market.
And the purpose of this is what?
The Indian model is unique – are Screen Australia suggesting future AUS productions include Bollywood story lines & dance scenes?
This is absolutely ridiculous & laughable – hallmark of people who don’t know what their doing…
