Microwave Scheme

The microwave scheme is a scheme which helps small film makers publicise their film by giving them small amounts of money usually about £100,000. This can work because the microwave scheme takes in a percentage of the money the film makers earn. For example the film Shifty had the microwave scheme behind it which means ten percent of the money the film makes goes to the film London microwave scheme.

            The microwave scheme has helped in the making of Shifty which is about the life of a Muslim drug dealer, Mum and Dad which is a horror film set around London Heathrow airport, Freestyle which is a teen romance set in the world of free style basketball and many more.

            The microwave scheme was interested with the making of shifty because the film makers wanted to make a business which is what the microwave scheme wants to create as their goal not just one of productions which don’t help towards their brief.
