Bord Scannán na hÉireann/the Irish Film Board (IFB) has announced the details for its enhanced production funding for female talent, one of the five new ground-breaking initiatives for female writers, directors and producers, which were announced this year’s Galway Film Fleadh, as part of the IFB’s ongoing commitment to gender equality in the Irish film industry.
Detailed guidelines for the enhanced production funding for feature film projects driven by Irish female writers and directors have now been published, as part of a number of measures specifically targeted at incentivising female writers, directors and producers, in order to directly increase female representation in the Irish film, television and animation industry.
Applicants are advised to familiarise themselves with the guidelines for this initiative to ensure eligibility in advance of making a submission.
