We are just £500 shy of our £2,000 goal for the Other Brother Studios Film Fund.
Seeking new partners for additional sponsorship: are you interested?
Set up in 2017 the fund aims to support emerging filmmakers in the early stages of their careers. We have supported 4x talented emerging filmmakers since 2017 and as we head into the 5th year of the fund we want to make even more of a difference and raise the support given.
Winning shorts have been shown at 54 film festivals internationally, including ‘7 Planets’ by Milda Baginskaite, the 2017 film fund winner.
From Milda:
“Being a young filmmaker, let alone being young, is not easy. There are lots of us out there, trying to get our films made and a lot of us have good ideas too, I believe. Film being a collaborative affair, we need more people than just ourselves believing in our stories to get them off the ground. Other Brother Studios, first of all, has given me so much confidence in the project, supporting and understanding the story I wanted to tell. From early preproduction until the late distribution stages of 7 Planets, Matthew has given us great advice and provided us with technical support whenever needed. At the same time, our team was given lots of freedom to make our own decisions and creative choices. The challenging budget limitations and a set timescale to produce the film have worked out for the better for us, as any kind of limitations make one think creatively and improvise. With a budget of £500 we managed to have over 20 schoolchildren and a rocket launch in our short. There should exist more creative schemes like Other Brother Studios Film Fund to help and support young creatives make their first steps into the wide, scary and unknown film industry world.”
