RFQ: Facilitator to oversee and implementation of the 5th NFVF National Film Indaba logistics on behalf of the NFVF.
BACKROUND
The National Film and Video Foundation (NFVF) is an agency of the Department of Arts and Culture, created to ensure the equitable growth of South Africas audio visual industry. We do this by providing funding for the development, production, marketing and distribution of films and also the training and development of filmmakers. In addition, the NFVF commissions research and produces industry statistics that provide both the public and stakeholders with valuable insights into the South African film industry.
OUR MAIN OBJECTIVES
To increase the number of South African films and Previously Disadvantaged Individuals (PDIs) producing them.
To increase audience access to South African films.
To increase the number of people trained in the industry, particularly in areas of scarce skills.
To promote the South African Film Industry locally and internationally.
To promote social cohesion and the expression of the nations stories through film.
The South African Film industry is an industry in transformation, the sector has evolved from being regarded as a form of diversion to an economic tool with vast potential to create jobs, contributing immensely to the GDP and promotion of social cohesion. For South Africa specifically, the local film industry shows excellent potential for growth. The industry is regarded as a catalyst for both direct and indirect employment of people from different sectors of the economy.
