    Summary of Hearing with the British Film Institute Held on 12 June 2013

    CINEWORLD/CITY SCREEN MERGER INQUIRY Summary of hearing with the British Film Institute held on 12 June 2013 Background 1. The British Film Institute (BFI) was the appointed lead agency for film in the UK, which gave it a strategic remit for film production. Its functions included the Lottery Film Fund, which distributed lottery money for film development, film production and the distribution of specialized film in the UK; an archive team, which looked after and restored works; an education team; and a publishing function for magazine and DVD publication. 2. The BFI had an exhibition department, which was based at the BFI Southbank and also housed the London Film Festival and the Lesbian and Gay Film Festival. BFI Southbank was a commercially-operated cinema in London and the site also housed the Mediatheque, a publicly available archive of television and media material and the Reuben library of books and manuscripts related to film and television. It owned the IMAX cinema on the Southbank, the running of which was contracted to the Odeon. 3. The BFI had a distribution arm, distributing works restored by the BFI as well as third- party films. These tended to be specialized, rather than commercial films. The BFI was not a competitive acquirer of rights to new works. 4. As a charity, the BFI also had a fundraising team. BFI grants 5. The BFI would shortly be launching a fund called The Audience Network to allow community venues to show a broad range of films to their local audience. Through the fund, it would make available small grants for equipment to venues that were not cinemas, for example village halls, town halls and local schools that ran film societies or film clubs.

    The Finance and Production of Independent Film and Television in the UK: a Critical Introduction

    The Finance and Production of Independent Film and Television in the UK: A Critical Introduction Vital Statistics General Population: 64.1m Size: 241.9 km sq GDP: £1.9tr (€2.1tr) Film1 Market share of UK independent films in 2015: 10.5% Number of feature films produced: 201 Average visits to cinema per person per year: 2.7 Production spend per year: £1.4m (€1.6) TV2 Audience share of the main publicly-funded PSB (BBC): 72% Production spend by PSBs: £2.5bn (€3.2bn) Production spend by commercial channels (excluding sport): £350m (€387m) Time spent watching television per day: 193 minutes (3hrs 13 minutes) Introduction This chapter provides an overview of independent film and television production in the UK. Despite the unprecedented levels of convergence that characterise the digital era, the UK film and television industries remain distinct for several reasons. The film industry is small and fragmented, divided across the two opposing sources of support on which it depends: large but uncontrollable levels of ‘inward-investment’ – money invested in the UK from overseas – mainly from the US, and low levels of public subsidy. By comparison, the television industry is large and diverse, its relative stability underpinned by a long-standing infrastructure of 1 Sources: BFI 2016: 10; ‘The Box Office 2015’ [market share of UK indie films] ; BFI 2016: 6; ‘Exhibition’ [cinema visits per per person]; BFI 2016: 6; ‘Exhibition’ [average visits per person]; BFI 2016: 3; ‘Screen Sector Production’ [production spend per year]. 2 Sources: Oliver & Ohlbaum 2016: 68 [PSB audience share]; Ofcom 2015a: 3 [PSB production spend]; Ofcom 2015a: 8.

    British Film Institute Response to Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Audiovisual Media Services Directive Consul

    British Film Institute Response to Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport Audiovisual Media Services Directive Consultation Document August 2019 About the BFI The BFI is the UK’s lead organisation for film, television and the moving image which: • Curates and presents a public programme of World Cinema for audiences - in cinemas, at festivals and online. • Cares for the BFI National Archive - the most significant film and television archive in the world. • Actively seeks out and supports the next generation of filmmakers. • Works with Government and industry to make the UK the most creatively exciting and prosperous place to make film internationally. Executive summary The BFI welcomes the opportunity to respond to this consultation, in particular, we wish to stress the following points: • The BFI endorses important revisions to AVMS, which will help to ensure that regulation is appropriate to the needs of industry and audience at a time of very significant change in the sector. In particular, the objective of creating a level playing field between video sharing services, on-demand services and linear AV services is very welcome and entirely justified, especially given rapidly changing consumer behaviour, new service providers and business models.
