The Irish Film Board (IFB) has made changes to the deadlines for all development, production and distribution funding schemes.
The new upcoming application deadlines for production and distribution funding are as follows:
Friday June 13, 2014
Wednesday August 13, 2014
Friday September 12, 2014
This change is being implemented to allow further time to engage with BSÉ/IFB Project Mangers in advance of making an application. Applications will be processed within 5-6 weeks of the deadline. The procedure for the assessment of all development funding applications remains the same. The deadline for the receipt of applications is the last working day of every month and applications will be processed within 6-8 weeks of the deadline. Please note however that there will be no deadline for all development applications in July. There will no deadline for screenplay development applications in August (in addition to July), as the scheme is currently under review.
The upcoming deadlines for development funding are as follows:
Monday June 30, 2014
Friday August 29, 2014 (for project development, animation development, international development and documentary development only. No deadline for screenplay development until further notice)
Tuesday September 30, 2014
The IFB wish to advise applicants that the online system will close at 1pm on the day of each deadline. For further information on these changes see irishfilmboard.ie.
