The Victorian Production Fund supports diverse and engaging Victorian-led content to be made in the state, growing Victoria’s pipeline of high-quality projects and ensuring a sustainable and globally competitive industry right here in Victoria.
It will ensure that Australian and global audiences can watch more compelling Victorian-made stories on screens of all sizes: big, small and the one in your hand.
The Victorian Production Fund supports Victorian production companies, Victorian project originators and Victorian key creatives to produce high-quality, diverse and engaging film, television, online and virtual reality (VR) projects.
Creators with a scripted or unscripted narrative project that has market attachment from a distributor, broadcaster or major online content provider can apply for between 3-10% of the project’s Victorian production spend, capped at $500,000.
Investment greater than 10% or $500,000 may be available for projects that provide exceptional benefit to Victoria in terms of economic impact, employment and skills development opportunities, significant Victorian IP, or cultural value.
Our investment is cash-flowed into the production and the equity remains with the producer.
