INDUSTRY AND AUDIENCE

How do they get made?

• The main source of funding short films are produced from is from the UK Film Council.
• Local Councils would also put some money towards a short film especially if it deals with social exclusions or aids.
• Charities will also often fund for short films. The charities will usually fund those short films that the topic/goal of the film is in some way related to their charity, for example Welcome Trust (UK's largest medical research) has an Arts Award for funding various projects including a short film about biomedical science.
