IRELAND MEDIA RESULTS 2014-2020
INTRODUCTION
Fund | Support | Connect
Creative Europe is the European Union Programme for the cultural and creative
sectors. Over a seven year period (2014-2020) the EU will invest ¤1.46 billion in
the audiovisual and culture sectors. The European Commission has proposed a
new Creative Europe Programme for the period 2021–2027
Creative Europe Culture provides funding to organisations in the arts, craft,
design, and heritage fields to work on projects across Europe, reach new
audiences, and develop skills needed in the digital age.
Creative Europe MEDIA supports European film and audiovisual industries in
the development, distribution and promotion of their projects. MEDIA also
offers opportunities to develop skills in traditional and new media technologies
as well as supporting European companies in targeting markets and networks
within and beyond European borders.
Since 2014, ¤11,175,380 million has been awarded to Irish companies through
Creative Europe MEDIA. This funding has helped to grow and internationalise
the Irish audiovisual sector by not only investing in the creation of international
projects through the Producer Support Schemes but also by giving Irish
professionals access to International markets and training.

Total: ¤1,467,118TRAINING Training Support scheme MEDIA’s Training Scheme funding supports activities aimed at increasing the skills and networking capabilities of professionals in the audio-visual sector. Grants are offered to training providers to enable them to deliver training activities for professionals at various stages of their careers. Activities may take the form of workshops or online coaching sessions and dissemination tools by using proven or testing new learning, teaching and coaching methods and best practice dissemination. Training Courses Creative Europe MEDIA supports almost 50 high-level pan-European Training initiatives each year. Since the beginning of the Creative Europe Programme, many Irish professionals have participated in these courses with a number of these benefiting from the Bursary Scheme that Screen Training Ireland provides towards the costs of attending. These include programmes from Training providers such as EAVE, Erich Pommer Institute, La Femis, Eurodoc and Inside Pictures among others. In Ireland, Screen Ireland has received ¤1,227,975 from Creative Europe for the Screen Training Ireland training programmes, Screen Leaders and VFX: Script to Screen. The full list of Training Programmes supported may be found in the Interactive Training and Networks Guide available at www.creative-europe- media.eu
DISTRIBUTION Cinema Distribution MEDIA supports the distribution and broadcasting of fiction, documentary, animation, and interactive programmes as well as European films on- line, in movie theatres, and on television. Financial support is available to European Cinema distributors for the distribution of non-national European films under two support mechanisms: 1. Selective Scheme. Irish distribution companies have received funding to distribute non-national European Films. Access Cinema, Wildcard Distribution and Element Distribution have received ¤74,600 since 2014 2. Automatic Scheme. Curzon Film World, Soda Pictures, Entertainment Film Distributors, Metrodome Distribution, Wiserealm, Element Distribution and Magnetes Pictures Ireland have received a total of ¤145,161 under the Automatic Distribution Scheme. The aim of the automatic support scheme is to support the wider transnational distribution of recent European films by providing funds to Distributors, based upon their market performance, for further investment in new non-national European films. The scheme also aims to encourage the development of links between the production and distribution sectors thus improving the competitive position of non-national European films and the competitiveness of European companies. Promotion of European Works Online This scheme supports the promotion of European Audiovisual works online by supporting: >> The digital promotion, marketing, branding, tagging and development of new offers by existing VOD services offering a majority of European films. >> The preparation of digital packages facilitating the commercialisation of European audiovisual works on VOD platforms. >> Innovative strategies for distribution and promotion of European audiovisual works, including audience development initiatives focusing on innovative and participatory strategies reaching out to wider audiences with European films. >> We Love Cinema / Usheru received ¤194,520 for their Eurofilm Platform in 2019
AUDIENCE | FESTIVALS One of the priorities of the MEDIA is to support audience development as a means of stimulating interest in and improving access to European audiovisual works in particular through promotion, events, film education, and festivals. Film Education The Film Education Scheme arose from the now discontinued Audience Development Scheme. The Film Education Scheme supports projects providing mechanisms for better cooperation between film education initiatives in Europe with the aim to improve the efficiency and European dimension of these initiatives and to develop new and innovative projects, especially using digital tools. The target audience of the film education initiatives must be young people under 19 years old. The Scheme also supports projects providing mechanisms for increasing the contribution of existing European films and audiovisual works to education, including curated catalogues of films. The Irish Film Institute were a minority partner in the European Framework for Film Education Project with British Film Institute Royal Charter. This funding was awarded under the Film Literacy strand of the Audience Development Scheme. Film Festivals Every year, MEDIA supports over a hundred European Film Festivals notable for their particularly rich and varied programme of European films, their efforts to engage with the general public, and their activities involving professionals in large numbers. One of the priorities of this scheme is to support audience development as a means of stimulating interest in and improving access to European audiovisual works. Applications for festival support must include Audience Development initiatives, in particular initiatives aimed at young audiences. Cork Film Festival received ¤110,000 for 2018 and 2019 from Creative Europe.
MARKETS Access to Markets The Access to Markets scheme supports organisations that propose events and activities designed to promote European Audiovisual works and facilitate access to markets for Professionals. Galway Film Fair at Galway Film Fleadh has received funding totalling ¤371,750 in Creative Europe since 2014. In 2017, Irish company Park Films were awarded ¤40,000 for Rangle, a digital platform with a mobile app that connects productions with crews. Creative Europe MEDIA provides an umbrella stand for European professionals at major audiovisual markets such as MIP TV, MIPCOM, the Cannes Film Festival and the Berlinale. Activities taking place in and outside of countries participating in the MEDIA sub-programme may be supported. Visit Media-Stands.eu for information on MEDIA stands at upcoming markets. Creative Europe directly supports special interest and thematic markets such as Series Mania, CARTOON Forum and tailored events such as the Documentary seminars coordinatedby the European Documentary Network. Creative Europe also supports database and online tools such as Cineuropa.
CO-PRODUCTION FUNDS Co-Production Funds Creative Europe supports organisations that help European and international co-production partners to meet or provide them with access to international co-production funds. Current beneficiaries are Torino Film Lab World Production & Distribution Fund, World Cinema Fund Europe, IDFA Bertha Fund Europe, HBF+ Europe, ACM Distribution
