Name-change for Film Council
As of 13 May, the United Kingdom’s leading agency for the promotion of the local film industry, the Film Council (FC) and its inward investment arm, the British Film Commission (BFC), will be known as, respectively, the UK Film Council and the UK Film Council International.
The announcement was made by CEO John Woodward:”The film industry is an international business, and it is important that there is a single, easily identifiable contact point for overseas filmmakers, businesses and organisations interested in working with and within the UK. Combining the organisational identities of the Film Council and BFC will provide that.”
The websites of both institutions are in the process of being combined and redeveloped as ukfilmcouncil.org.uk.
