Homemade Films Mini Slate 2024

ongoing

OBJECTIVES The general objective of our current Creative Europe - MEDIA Development Support mini-slate application is to successfully produce the company’s first-ever genre films, increase the competitiveness of Homemade Films, as an independent European production company, solidify its position in the market, as well as enhance its co-production capacity with various countries. The final expected result is to improve the distribution possibilities of our projects at a European and international level. ACTIVITIES We are submitting two feature fiction films and one short fiction film. Our activities will include: intensive script writing and creative development (including casting, location scouting, assembling of creative teams), delivery of scripts, attending co-production markets and festivals, securing deals with co-producers, sales agents and financiers, securing funds for development and production in Greece and abroad, working on marketing and audience design already from the stage of development, as well as all the steps that will lead to the production of aforementioned projects. Through this slate, we will support the writers and directors of submitted projects (two female and two male). Our all-female and non-binary production company (3 members) will also be benefiting from the allocation of development support. At the same time, a big number of external production personnel and creatives will also be benefiting, including script consultants, location managers, casting directors, cinematographers, art directors, line producers, assistant directors, distribution consultants and marketing executives. RESULTS The expected results are to proceed to the development and financing of our projects and enter principal photography. Throughout this process, we anticipate producing 18 outputs, including: updated creative materials, updated financing strategies, financing plans and budgets, as well as updated marketing strategies.
