UK Film Council launches short film completion fund

The UK Film Council's New Cinema Fund is inviting individual filmmakers and production companies to apply to the 2006 Completion Fund. The fund is part of the New Cinema Fund's programme to enable directors and producers to push their creative boundaries, develop new talent and to invest in short films that illustrate unique ideas and an innovative approach.

This is a £50,000 fund to support short films that have already been shot but lack the funds to finish.

The deadline for applications is 2 December 2005 - for further details and an application form see the UK Film Council website.
