WE NEED YOUR HELP<\/span><\/h1>\n

Background<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Getting funding these days is extremely difficult. There are hundreds of companies and individuals all looking for funding but there simply isn\u2019t enough money to go around. To make matters worse the government announced in 2011<\/a> they would be cutting funding to the arts. In short \u2013 They did cut funding and it has had a devastating effect on many organisations. This meant competition is even more fierce when it comes to funding. It has only got worse ever since.<\/p>\n

The Effect On Shoe String Filming<\/strong><\/h3>\n

We are micro budget. That means we work on the smallest of budgets. Forget your hundred thousand pounds funding an indie flick, we are talking seriously low money. The majority of our films are self funded and our most expensive film to date has cost us \u00a32000. We need as much support and help as humanly possible. However with everyone feeling the pinch smaller companies like ours are struggling to getting funding approved.<\/p>\n
