QCinema Project Market napili na ang maglalaban sa $400,000 na premyo

Napili na ng QCinema Project Market (QPM), ang official industry program of the QCinema Film Festival, ang final selection - 20 feature films na magtutunggali sa $400,000 in grants and prizes.

Ayon kay Mr. Ed Lejano, Qcinema Festival Director , “We’re ramping up our QCinema Experience as we launch our inaugural project market this year with loads of production grants in store. Our local grants were temporarily affected by the pandemic and it’s definitely back - with P 3 Million for 3 Filipino features and $35,000 for 3 Southeast Asian features. And with our numerous international partners, a lot more funding goodies will be up for grabs. With our new QCinema Project Market, these valuable financial packages can only boost the regional film industries to new heights.”

Nauna ailang nag-host ng QPM Cinema Night sa ginanap na Busan International Film Festival’s Asian Content and Film Market, to officially launch the program and celebrate with festival and market delegates.

Ang announcement ng selected projects was made by Quezon City Film Development Commission (QCFDC) Executive Director and QPM Managing Director Liza Diño, together with Mister Lejano and QCinema Film Foundation President Manet Dayrit.

 “We are so proud to have received so many project submissions from both established and upcoming names from the region. For our first year, we really hope to bring the Philippines and Southeast Asia together to connect and find partners in each other so we can bring these amazing and authentic stories to life. We’re also honored to bring investors, companies, film funders, and decision makers from all over the region and the world to make this QPM a success for all the projects,” pahayag pa ni Ms. Diño.

  Isasabay ang QPM sa QCinema International Film Festival’s 11th year on November 18-20, 2023.
