Film Commission Atlas
The bodies that pay for film in Europe — commissions, funds, agencies and the money that moves between them. Every fact dated and sourced.
Visit the AtlasA private edition, circulating by invitation while the record is refined — access is by code.
Every directory of Europe's screen sector is one of three things: a rate table with no dates, a list of programmes with no structure, or an address book. None of them can answer the questions a production actually asks — who legally administers this incentive, and who merely markets it? When was this rate last true? What changed since?
The Atlas is built to answer exactly those. It maps the institutions as a graph — who founded what, who sits inside whom, who holds the money — and records every figure with the date it was retrieved and the primary source that stated it. Where the record is incomplete, the gap is drawn and labelled, the way old atlases printed terra incognita instead of guessing a coastline.
In the current edition
- 144 bodies charted across 41 territories, with their membership ties joined for the first time
- 31 incentive instruments, every rate taken from the administering body's own page — never an aggregator
- Errata & Revisions — a running, dated record of what changed, which no other directory publishes
- Side by Side — territories compared on the fields you choose, every figure carrying its date
- A weekly automated sweep re-checks every source, so staleness is detected — never discovered by a reader
