Originally launched in 2019 at AFCI’s 43rd Cineposium conference, Best Practice in Screen Sector Development was a first-of-its-kind analysis of the strategies, policies, and other interventions used by governments around the world to maximise their share of the Screen production market.

This updated study features expanded analysis, insights and case studies into the Screen production sector’s evolving landscape. It investigates a wide range of strategies employed by governments, legislators, and industry partners to foster growth in the Screen production sector in both established and emerging markets.

In addition to the original four research areas – production incentives, workforce capacity, infrastructure and film-friendliness – the new study analyses current best practices in diversity, equity and inclusion strategies, Screen production sustainability, and partner engagement. Extensive case studies are included across the report to illustrate the best practice findings in each research area.

The key findings of Best Practice in Screen Sector Development will be available to download in 11 languages (Arabic, Bahasa Indonesia, English, French, Korean, Japanese, Malay, Mandarin, Portuguese, Spanish, and Thai), with the full study to be published in English.
