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.”

“I used Other Brother Studios for all our Post Production and they were superb! We did the whole edit with them as well as the online and grade. It was for my first feature documentary called DBE, which we made about CrossFit star Danielle Brandon. We wouldn't have reached the level of quality without them.”

Antony Green, Head of Production - R.A.D

“It was a pleasure to work with the creative minds at Other Brother Studios. They went to great lengths to ensure they understood the ethos of our work and our hopes for the film. They had a clear vision for the piece and captured the sensitive nature and the human side of our work which resulted in a beautiful, engaging and touching film. They were required to film in a challenging environment with many restrictions, however, they handled this with ease and care. We are very grateful to have such a high quality and professional film to share our work with the world.”

Abbie and Chris, Cooper King Distillery

“Having seen the body of work Matthew was capable of delivering when he was awarded the Film Fund bursary, co-founded by the Roundhouse and Ex-Animo Foundation, we were quick to approach him again to commission him to direct and produce another animated short film, which went on to win many awards. Matthew has established himself as a highly commended film director, and Other Brother Studios as a professional and respected entity in the film production industry.

We have known Matthew for over 6 years, working together, and have always found him a person of great integrity and a bona fide professional with a truly impressive showreel. We were also delighted to hear that Other Brother Studios started their own Film Fund to continue impact investing in young filmmakers.”

Marlena Hellebø, Ex Animo Foundation

“We were knocked out by the video we made with Matt and the team at Other Brother Studios. They made it really easy to get something positive together and delivered on everything they said they were going to do and more. The video concept Matt delivered was spot on, and the shoot and all that followed matched that. Brilliant! Great result. Thanks to you all."
