Registration is restricted to producers whose main activity is production and who have produced within the last four years at least one feature-length film commercially released in a theater or acquired by a global video streaming platform.
Screenings at festivals do not qualify as a commercial release or distribution.
These professionals must provide proof of their personal credits as a film producer (not only their companies). Official documentation may be requested to fulfill the registration requirements.
The term "Producer" is understood as follows:
- In France (and in French-speaking Europe): producer, executive producer ("producteur délégué") or co-producer (official co-production), excluding: line producers, associate producers, production managers and production assistants.
- USA: producer, excluding: co-producers, executive producers, associate producers, line producers, production managers and production assistants.
- Rest of the World: producer or co-producer (official co-production), excluding: executive producers, associate producers, line producers, production managers and production assistants.
Registration is only final after validation of the criteria by the Producers Network team.
If it turns out that the Producer does not comply with the registration rules (production credit, theatrical release, number of registered producers, etc.), the difference between the registration fee for the Producers Network and that of the Marché du Film badge will be retained as administrative fees.
The Producers Network is limited to 400 participants, and registration for this program may be closed without notice. The activities in the Producers Network program is carried out in English. Translators and interpreters are not allowed.
