Production Awards
During TorinoFilmLab’s co-production forum Meeting Event, projects developed within ScriptLab and FeatureLab training programmes are presented to an audience of Decision Makers invited from all over the world.
On this occasion, an international Jury assigns the Production Awards to the best projects developed within FeatureLab – TFL’s programme dedicated to 1st and 2nd feature film projects at an advanced development stage. The awards are given to enable the making of the film, without any obligation to spend the money in Italy.
The selection of the awarded projects is based on the following materials: script, budget, financing plan, production schedule, as well as on the public pitching of the project, and the individual meeting of the writer/director and producer with the Jury. The Jury changes every year, and it is formed by 5 members of the film industry.
In order to be eligible for these awards, all projects need to participate in the programme first. In 2020, 2 of the Production Awards will be assigned to international co-productions (involving European and non-European partners), thanks to the Creative Europe – MEDIA sub-programme support to International Co-production Funds.
The Awarded projects of the TorinoFilmLab FeatureLab programme must indicate TorinoFilmLab support both in the opening and closing credits by displaying the TorinoFilmLab logo, together with the caption "Production Fund Award".
