is joining forces with Creative UK, the independent network for the country’s creative industries, on an initiative that will develop and fund debut feature films.
Dubbed ‘Breakout’, the program will support emerging filmmakers, with at least one feature project set to receive a production budget of approximately £1.5M as well as a guaranteed berth on Netflix. Six teams will be given £30,000 of development funding to take part in an intensive training and professional development programme, delivered by Creative UK. The program will involve lab events, mentoring, and support and input from Netflix executives.
The streamer said it was looking for creative teams whose work has garnered industry or public attention, but they have not yet made a funded feature, and that diversity is a priority. Projects are being targeted from popular genres such as mystery and crime thrillers, bold and original horror, comedies and rom-com, young adult and family adventure.
Paul Ashton, Head of Film & TV, Creative UK added: “Talent is everywhere but opportunity is not, and from our very first conversation it was clear that Netflix shared our desire to offer career-changing opportunities to film talent in the UK. Having backed films at Creative UK which have realised their best life with Netflix, such aswe know how important Breakout will be.
