When nearly two years ago, the Polish Film Institute and the National Chamber of Audiovisual Producers turned to me with a proposal to organize a conference in Krakow capabilities of local government participation in supporting the film industry in the region, I knew that our city can not in this initiative fail. In the face of changes in financial policy of the Polish Television and film production funding limitations, the use of grants awarded by the Polish Film Institute film-makers has become virtually impossible. In view of the video output of Krakow decided to create a first-Regional Film Fund in Cracow.
In the first year of activity could be persuaded to cooperate and participate in the Fund, the Malopolska Region authorities. From the first year of the RFF in Krakow also has the biggest budget among all the nine funds currently operating in Polish.
Regional Film Fund in Cracow, supported so far eight of production. In 2009, one of the beneficiaries was Janusz Majewski and his film "Little Matura 1947" - winner of the 35th Festival Polish Film Festival in Gdynia. This is in cooperation with the city of Wilhelm Sasnal made the film "Love Supreme", commissioned and custom-made London's Tate Modern. This year, more than 30 days and was filmed in Krakow in the movie "entanglements" dir. Jacek Bromski. An important aspect is the requirement for co-location of the film in Krakow and Malopolska, and that lecturing money to acquire shares in the production of film and profits from its distribution.
At a time when other regions create their funds that focus on the solutions implemented in Malopolska in Krakow began Cracow Film Commission activities - a specialized division within the structures of the Krakow Festival Office. The main area of \u200b\u200bactivity of the Commission is giving support for the implementation of film production: acquisition of administrative approvals necessary for filming, film crews to facilitate access to the site and for film producers and coordinating contacts with the authorities, police, municipal guards, fire brigade and ambulance. We build the image of a friendly city with good filmmakers cooperation between the Commission and the RFF of urban and provincial departments and the production potential and experience of the companies operating in Galicia, in particular television TVN, TVP Krakow center and Alvernia Studios - the most modern film studios in Europe.
Such action quickly brought results. In a few days in Krakow move pictures to the artistes, Bollywood blockbuster thriller "Mujjahir. About this project competed Krakow to the Czech Prague. He won - which until recently was unthinkable! It is important that, as in the case of "Maika" Krakow Krakow will play in the film, which gives a huge promotional potential of our city. I hope that this is a good perspectives for future filmmakers and crew will be hosting in Krakow more often.
