Rapport sur les films à petit budget, UK Film Council, juin 2008

par 

- Le rapport donne une vue d'ensemble sur la situation des films à petit budget (£50k - £250k) au Royaume-Uni au cours des cinq dernières années. Il montre comment ce secteur a trouvé sa voie au Royaume-Uni, malgré les difficultés face à la concurrence avec les films de Hollywood. Les films à petit budget commencent à prendre la position de la ‘carte d'appel’, tenue pour longtemps par le court métrage.

The report provides an engaging insight into the emergence of low and micro budget films (£50k - £250k) in the UK over the past five years. Using comprehensive surveys and case studies the report documents the reasons behind micro budget movie growth, its impact on the UK film industry and the key players in its progress.

The prevailing message of the report is that micro budget moviemaking is here to stay! It has found a niche in a UK arena dominated by big Hollywood studio releases (which comprise almost 90% of the market) and although finding itself in fierce competition with independent US titles and bigger budget UK releases, the dramatic increase in micro budget movie production points to a sector on the up.

Business models for micro budget movies are constantly evolving and encompass a variety of different approaches but do on the whole tend to rely upon private investment.

It would be fair to conclude from this report, that micro budget movies are beginning to usurp the position of the ‘calling card', long held by the traditional short film format. The benefits being that they offer the same creative freedoms as short film but provide a better training ground for development to fully-fledged features and the possibility of investor return. The success stories of films like Napoleon Dynamite, Once & The Blair Witch Project also indicate the strong possibility of micro budgets one day soon becoming a fully-sustainable format, parallel to the conventional studio format.
