About this scheme

The Bigger Picture supports Scotland-based filmmakers making high-value, high-impact short fiction films — typically for talent on the verge of a feature debut or established feature filmmakers making a strategic short.

Take Three contributes up to £90,000 per film. Teams are expected to secure additional third-party finance and UK tax relief in the budget. Up to four films are supported per round, including a Gaelic-language project supported with MG ALBA.

Live action fiction only. Experienced producers are expected to be attached to help showcase talent to feature financiers.
