Sediba Advanced International Financing Programme

The National Film and Video Foundation (NFVF) has announced the launch of a brand new programme, the Sediba Advanced International Financing Programme, developed for South African Producers.



Aimed at providing to experienced producers focused training on international financing, packaging and distribution, the programme comes after the successes of the NFVF's Sediba Scriptwriting Training and Development Programme.

The programme will be headed by a range of global experts who have experience in buying, sourcing finance and selling at the world's leading markets including the American Film Market, the Cannes Film Festival and the Berlin Film Festival.

The programme will be held in three sessions with the first taking place on Tuesday, April 28, and the last session on Tuesday, August 18 2009. At the end of the programme the top two achievers will be selected to attend the Film London Production Finance Market in October 2009, where they will have an opportunity to pitch their projects to potential international financiers, sales agents and distributors.

The closing date for applications is April 6th 2009. For more information visit the NFVF website
