PRIMEXCHANGE Norway-Germany

The newly developed producer programme initiated by the Norwegian Film Institute and implemented by PRIMEHOUSE is aimed at Norwegian film producers with a focus on the German market as well as German film producers who have co-productions with Norway in mind. The training programme offers producers from both countries intensive advice on the market opportunities for their projects, especially in German-speaking countries, right from the early packaging phase. Together with leading experts from the fields of script development, market analysis, financing, distribution, world sales and games, the potential of the projects is analysed and possibilities for further development are developed. In-depth presentations on the structure and organisation of German film funding and production conditions in Germany round off the programme. The registration fee is 50 euros. (Further participation is free of charge for the selected producers). The deadline for applications is 15 September 2009.
