Audiovisual and New Media Production Support — Fiction (Live Action)
The scheme targets live-action audiovisual fiction. The catalogue mentions several caps depending on the format: 26-minute one-off/pilot, recurring 90-minute one-off and series, to be confirmed in the current scale. Production companies must document the format, costs, financing and territorial link. The precise criteria, application dates and applicable caps must be confirmed in the up-to-date official rules.
This scheme targets live-action audiovisual and new media fiction. The exact format (one-off, pilot or series) determines the cap; production in the Grand Est and the use of local resources are decisive. The amount and procedure must be assessed from the official page corresponding exactly to the scheme and the format of the work. This page is a starting point, but is not enough to confirm that a session is open or that a project is admissible.
