The objective of the support to TV and online content is to increase the capacity of audiovisual producers to develop and produce strong projects with significant potential to circulate throughout Europe and beyond, and to facilitate European and international co-productions within the television and online sector.
The action aims to strengthen the independence of producers in relation to broadcasters and digital platforms, to enhance collaboration between operators, including independent producers, broadcasters, digital platforms and sales agents, from different countries participating in the MEDIA Strand, including from low capacity countries, in order to produce high-quality programming aimed at wide international distribution and promoted to a wide audience including commercial exploitation in the multi-platform environment.
The applicants must be independent European audiovisual production companies. The coordinator must be the majority producer of the work in terms of rights. In case of equal shares, the coordinator should be designated by the partner(s) as delegate producer.
Other entities may participate in other consortium roles, such as associated partners, subcontractors, third parties giving in-kind contributions, etc (see section 13).
