Our production-company was created with the goal to produce creative documentary- and author´s films for the cinema and for tv broadcasters.We are focused on films which have an artistic statement and consider ourselves as creative producers.We are curious about any interesting concepts of authors. We organize film development, raise funds for the production or arrange co-producers.

The Vienna Film Fund helps to promote Austrian film, subsidize culture, economy and employment in the film industry of Vienna and all of Europe. In 2010 the council of the city of Vienna finances the Vienna Film Fund budget of approx EUR 11.5 million. Subsidies granted for project development, production, distribution and taking part in film festivals. Projects assessed on cultural, economic and artistic merits. While producing a movie you have to spend at least 100% of the financial contribution of the Vienna Film Fund for film production facilities and skills existing in Vienna, employing local creative staff and filmmakers and/or having an on-screen promotion of the city. The fund was partner of the Sources2 and EAVE Media programs, and is a joint organizer of meetings of producers, attended by representatives of Europe's film sector.

Supports the long cinematic tradition of the city of Vienna and promotes the city as a film location.

The festival mirrors the status of Vienna as city of the short film, as place of current film production and especially as focus of cultural diversity und global developments in the art of short film. Being the largest Austrian short film festival, VIS is one big festivity for the audience, for dense encounters and creative discoveries.The independence in its name signifies the ambition of being sovereign in all senses of the word: organized by an independent body, the Independent Cinema Association, and with continuously growing self-confidence for the benefit of the creatives of the short film. Though being keen on a thoughtful and representative selection of international short films, VIS is not an annual show of the accepted best. It is a living forum of trying out and experimenting. The unseen is made visible: through the building of new networks and through the public presentation of films with the rarities' very essence. The festival accepts short films (under 30min) in a range of categories - fiction, documentary, experimental, etc.

The Vienna Screenwriters Forum emerged from the official lobby of the Austrian sceenwriters, founded in 1989. We represent the interests of screenwriters, we support professional screenwriters and we promote talented newcomers. Our main tasks are dramaturgical advice, providing exchange of information between film producation companies and authors, advice in legal affairs and publishing books on scriptwriting. We also organize workshops, seminars and an annual symposion with guests from the international film sector. Besides we assign each year at the Diagonale festival of Austrian film the Thomas Pluch Screenplay Prize for the best screenplay made into a film by an Austrian author.

In its main programme, Viennale shows a carefully picked selection of new films from all over the globe as well as new films from Austria| some of these are international first screenings. The choice of films offers a cross-section of bold film-making which stands apart from the esthetics of mainstream conventionality and is politically relevant. Aside from its focus on the newest feature films of every genre and structural form imaginable, the festival gives particular attention to documentary films, international short films, as well as experimental works and crossover films.

VIEW Conference (formerly Virtuality Conference) is a premiere international event on Computer Graphics, Interactive Techniques, Digital Cinema, 3D Animation, Gaming and VFX. Every year, Virtuality proposes the most up-to-date discussion about cutting-edge applications of VR and Interactive Techniques in various fields, but paying particular attention to its industrial applications and to the multifaceted universe of cinema, including presentations by world-class experts of animation and visual effects. The programme includes various exhibits, lectures, meetings, screenings and demo presentations.
