A statement by the Ministry of Finance stated that the FPF would contribute to commercially viable film projects a grant of up to N10m.
It said a number of medium budget film projects would be considered for a higher grant contribution.
“Funds are used to subsidise pre-production, production or post-production costs of films, and in making these grants, the initiative supports the further development of the Nollywood film industry and film making talent,” it said.
The statement also said about 40 practitioners in the film industry had been awarded various grants under the recently introduced Capacity Training Fund of the Presidential Intervention Scheme for the industry also known as Project ACT Nollywood.
