Financial assistance for 2012 ACE international training program
Screen Australia, in partnership with the Ateliers du Cinéma Européen (ACE), will offer a special bursary for one selected Australian producer to attend the 2012 ACE international training program (ACE Mundus).
ACE Mundus is an eight-day residential workshop for independent feature producers designed to favour co-productions between Europe and the rest of the world and to gradually build an international network of independent film producers.
Eight non-EU producers will be selected to participate in the ACE workshop, which will take place from 25 March to 1 April 2012 in Paris, France, and another European city yet to be confirmed.
Australian producers wishing to apply must have already produced at least one feature film, be eager to develop long-term business relationships with the European audiovisual industry and have one feature project in development with a strong international dimension.
Screen Australia will offer €5,800 to an Australian producer selected for the program, covering tuition fees, travel from Paris to the other European city (TBC), and full-board accommodation in Europe. ACE is offering a long-distance flight ticket to each selected participant.
More information about ACE and ACE Mundus can be found on their website:
The short description of the program including selection criteria and schedule and the application form are available to download from the Screen Australia website.
The deadline for applications is COB Monday 21 November 2011.
