FRONTIERES INTERNATIONAL CO-PRODUCTION MARKET
Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Frontières - Genre Film Co-production Market was launched at Fantasia International Film Festival in 2012. It was then extended into a biannual international co-production market specifically focused on facilitating genre film co-production between Europe and North America. Frontières took place in 2014, 2015 and 2016 place twice a year, in Brussels during BIFFF in April and in Montreal during Fantasia in July. Thus, Frontières has established an annual circuit for the co-production and financing of genre films between Europe and North America, and with the whole world. The purpose of this application is to request financing from Creative Europe to further develop Frontières with the creation of new activities, in a 3 stop-shop annual cycle, that will give the Frontières projects stronger access and opportunities on the international market place throughout a calendar year. These activities can be summarized as follows: - "Frontières Follow-up Market" session in Paris in January 2017: A selection of up to 12 projects (new and from previous Frontières editions) will participate to a 3-days event with experts and industry executives to further develop their pitching skills, packaging and financing strategies. - "Frontières goes to Cannes Market" at the Marché du Film - Festival de Cannes in May 2017: A selection of up to 12 Frontières projects (new and from previous Frontières editions) will be presented at the Marché du Film - Festival de Cannes including pitching session followed by individual meetings and works-in-progress or proof of concept screening, depending on their stage of advancement. - "Frontières Co-production Market" at Fantasia in Montreal in July 2017: A selection of 20 new projects will start the cycle again and participate in the already well-established market. Thus, every year 20 new projects will be presented at Frontières with a selection of 12 benefiting from a "Follow-up Market" in preparation for "Frontières goes to Cannes" events.
