Thinking Big
Summary
The Thinking Big: International Tax Incentives event hosted by BAFTA and Sargent-Disc looked at how UK producers can make tax incentives in UK, USA and Canada work for their show, giving real insights into the detail of the incentives available.
The event, chaired by Mike Kelly of Northern Alliance included
presentations by: Joseph Chianese, SVP of Tax & Production
Planning, Entertainment Partners; David Carter, President of Canada
Film Capital; and John Graydon, Director of Business Services Film
Unit, RSM Tenon Media.
The presentations looked at the detail of some of the various
incentives available in Canada and the US, their value, how to
qualify for them, and how UK producers are able to access them
alongside the UK's tax relief for feature films.
The lively question and answer session following the presentations
centred around the longevity of the incentives, the VFX sector and
the Canadian post production incentives, and how to balance
creative and financial motiovation.
Delegates all received a copy of 'The Essential Guide to U.S.
& International Production Incentives', copies of which
can be requested from individuals and companies within
Europe.
