Screen Flanders, the Flanders Innovation & Entrepreneurship economic fund, has announced €1.92 million in funding for 15 new audiovisual projects. The investment is expected to generate over €16.1 million in expenditure within Flanders. The number of supported projects has doubled compared to last year.

  • €1.92 million investment in 15 new audiovisual productions by Screen Flanders.
  • Nine majority Flemish and six minority Flemish projects are receiving support.
  • Projects are expected to generate €16.1 million in eligible expenditure in Flanders.
  • Support ranges from €35,000 to €295,000 per project.

What Happened

Screen Flanders announced an investment of €1.92 million in 15 new productions. The supported projects consist of nine majority Flemish (or Belgian) productions and six minority Flemish projects. Screen Flanders stated that these projects will generate more than €16.1 million in eligible audiovisual expenditure within the Flanders Region. The number of projects supported this year has doubled compared to last year.

Why this Matters to You

This investment may lead to a greater variety of films and series being produced in Flanders, potentially increasing the number of local productions you can watch. The funding could support jobs and economic activity in the region's creative sector. If you are interested in international cinema, the co-production structure of many projects may bring stories from Flanders to a wider audience.

What's Next

The 15 projects are now moving forward with production. The government of Flanders, through Screen Flanders, offers Belgian (co-)producers reimbursable advances of up to €400,000 for audiovisual expenditure in the region, which suggests further funding rounds may be possible. The supported projects, including feature films, drama series, and animated works, are likely to be released over the coming years.

Perspectives

“
Industry Observers suggest that the current selection of recipients demonstrates the broad diversity of Belgian cinema and highlights the attractiveness of Belgian partners within the European co-production landscape.
“
Screen Flanders Representatives argue that variations in funding amounts are not the result of a strategic shift but are instead driven by the specific profiles of applications, such as budget ranges, project types, and planned regional expenditures.
