PRA Graduate From SAFC’s FilmLab + Calling For Entries
June 22, 2010 11:56
The South Australian Film Corporation (SAFC) and The People’s Republic of Animation (PRA) are pleased to announce that PRA will be graduating its project BEAR HUG STORM PUNCH from the SAFC’s FilmLab program, and seeking to finance it as a commercial feature film.
"The success of FilmLab has been such that the film we developed through the process has begun to attract serious marketplace attention," said PRA producer Hugh Nguyen.
"This was always going to be an ambitious project and one that would stretch the budget confines of the Lab. With the level of support we have received we feel confident we can secure the additional finance required to raise the budget to a level that will give the project its best shot at success."
FilmLab is a $4.2million development initiative of the SAFC, funded by the South Australian Government, which provides professional and career development opportunities for South Australian filmmakers to progress from short to long form projects through an intensive and bespoke development program. The program culminates in the production of eight low budget films.
PRA’s departure creates the opportunity for another team to join the FilmLab program. Other teams in FilmLab are 'Shut Up Little Man!' by Matthew Bate and Sophie Hyde, 'Lott' (working title) by Ashlee Page and Sonya Humphrey; and '52 Tuesdays' by Sophie Hyde, Matthew Cormack and Bryan Mason.
The second FilmLab round is now open with applications closing 6 September 2010. Full details can be found at www.safilmlab.com.au
