Examples of consultancies provided to the supported projects in the past years are script consultancy, cinematography, VFX, sound design, production design, audience design.

On top of the individual consultations, the project will have the opportunity to participate to the TFL Meeting Event, taking place every November in Torino, Italy. TFL’s co-production forum is an important occasion of visibility and an opportunity for the selected films to find additional partners thanks to networking moments and one-on-one meetings. The TFL Meeting Event is attended every year by over 200 European and international professionals (producers, distributors, sales agents and film festival representatives).
