The Malta Film Commission plans to invest €500,000 of EU funds in accredited film production courses.

Finance Minister Tonio Fenech said investment in a skilled film production and servicing workforce would maintain the islands’ competitive edge.

Training courses, scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2013, will target “below-the-line” services, including ward­robe management, location scouting, special effects and lighting.

The funding comes from the European Social Fund Cohesion Policy Operational Programme II 2007-2013. For more information e-mail info@mfc.com.mt
