EM Media (the initials stand for East Midlands) is one of nine regional screen agencies that form part of Screen England and is the media development agency for the East Midlands region of the UK, incorporating Derbyshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire and Rutland.

Founded in 2002, it is funded by the UK Film Council, the European Regional Development Agency, the East Midlands Development Agency and Culture East Midlands.

East Midlands Media's aim is to support enjoyment and understanding of the media as much as it is to develop local talent, attract location shoots and build a sustainable and dynamic media sector in the East Midlands.

Using lottery money, it provides support for feature films, screenwriting, the production of short feature films and TV programmes, and the development of low-budget feature films.

Applicant individual and companies must be based in the East Midlands and not more than a third of a project's cost will be funded. Prior communication with EM Media before application is strongly advised.

Maximum aid levels:

£250,000 (feature films)
£25,000 (slates)
£15,000 (individual projects)
£5,000 (individual applicants)
