Overview

Northern Ireland Screen is looking for productions which contribute to building a sustainable screen industry in Northern Ireland and which can show a direct economic benefit to the region.

Projects must be commercially viable and able to demonstrate clear possibilities for commercial exploitation. In the case of feature films, the attachment of an experienced sales agent would be an asset, as would UK or US domestic distribution. For television, an expression of interest from an international distributor or network broadcaster is preferable.

Funding is available towards the production of feature films, television drama, animation, factual and entertainment television and interactive content.

Level of funding available:

Before an application is submitted applicants should discuss their project with Northern Ireland Screen at which stage an indication will be given on the level of funding that can be applied for based on the overall finance plan, the economic return to Northern Ireland, use of Northern Ireland resident cast, crew, and HODs, engagement with Northern Ireland Screen’s skills strategy, and the timing of the project.
