About strategy
Our strategic initiatives are designed to help ensure that the UK has a dynamic film industry, fit for the digital age, and to help UK audiences enjoy access to the best of British and world cinema.
Keeping British film internationally competitive
We work closely with the UK Government to provide tax relief and other incentives that encourage investment in British films.
Stimulating audience interest across the UK
Our Distribution and Exhibition strategy uses the latest digital technology to make new and classic cinema available to people in all areas of the UK.
Working with Skillset
We're partnering with Skillset to give the UK film industry the most advanced and integrated training support in the world.
Involving the whole of the UK
A Regional Investment Fund for England along with National Agencies for Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and eight Regional Screen Agencies can help make sure British Cinema reflect the whole of the UK.
Reflecting a diverse UK
Our Diversity Unit works hard to make sure British films and the British film industry reflect the rich diversity of the UK today.
Making the UK film industry a world-player
We're actively involved in modernising the UK's production agreements and developing partnerships with many countries – including India and China.
Putting the best of the big screen on the small screen
We've agreed a new commitment to film with the BBC and we're encouraging other broadcasters to put the best of contemporary and classic cinema on television.
Strengthening European film
We've established a new European Film Agencies Directors' network to do just this.
Safeguarding the UK's film heritage
We're investing to maintain our film archives and to make them more easily accessible to the public.
Looking forward
Looking to the future, we're developing new strategies to make sure that British films and British filmgoers benefit from emerging digital technologies and the exciting opportunities they offer for a more global cinema experience.
