Musiikin edistämissäätiö sr (MES)

Financial support for audiovisual production is granted for music-based productions featuring Finnish performing and/or creative music genres. Eligible projects include music videos, music-related documentaries and films as well as music education programmes and other AV productions promoting Finnish music. Aside from actual AV grants, financial support is also available for screenwriting and advance planning to help develop the concept and idea all the way to production launch. Music videos are not eligible for this type of support. The maximum grant is 50% of the project budget except for the support available for screenwriting and advance planning purposes.

Applications must be submitted within 4 months of the release of the video or programme. Applications received after said date will not be processed. Awards of grants for music video productions are based on the finished music video.

Financial support is primarily provided for professional productions.
