We are the only state that does not have a State Film Corporation there to support the commercial industry.

Build into each budget the cost of hiring and don't lump yourself with capital investment.

The dichotomy between art and industry is totally dysfunctional in terms of film.

The more commercial work that is happening, the more people are operating cameras and are setting up studio lights, the greater the opportunity for drama production to happen.

The worst thing that you can do in terms of bringing a product up to the market is to be two days after someone else has brought a similar product to the international market-It's dead.

Most independent filmmakers in Britain and North America work for commercial crews and then have their own projects when they've got enough money saved up to do so.

We are here predominantly to support independent filmmakers and their needs. We are also here to assist people actually in their production, non-commercial people in their production.
