The first round of applications to the Film Victoria's Games Investment Program is fast reaching the 29th of October deadline (this Friday!). If you haven't submitted your application, you don't have too long now!
After consulting with Film Victoria, Chris Watts from Play-Bit Entertainment saw fit to share the extra information on various factors of the funding program as well as some additional thoughts with a write up at the Play-Bit website. The article will be useful for developers who are in the process of forming their application in knowing what is expected of them by Film Victoria, and if you have any further questions, I'm sure Chris or Film Victoria would be happy answer them via the Play-Bit website or through here.
From Chris's article..
Fact: Film Vic will not fund more then 50% of the budget of the project. The other 50% provided by the developer does not have to be completely cash in the bank. When a developer puts a monitory value to their hours spent on the project unpaid. That’s known as “In-Kind” which is an important factor that can be added to your games budget.
