EXCLUSIVE: Blackwater Pictures, the British indie production company behind the buzzy biopic about the life of veteran Snooker player Jimmy White, has set up what they describe as a “multi-million-pound” fund to support commercially-minded independent British films.
Helmed by Kevin Harvey and Antoine Dixon-Bellot, Blackwater Pictures will commit to supporting five projects as part of a slate focused on emerging directors.
The fund will prioritize “commercial independent British films,” organizers said today. The fund is being managed in collaboration with BAFTA-nominated producer Tiernan Hanby (The Karman Line, Summit Fever, Heavyweight) of Pin Sharp Pictures and Simon Marriott of development & production company Shout Loud Creative (T.I.M, Daddy’s Head, Heavyweight).
Money for the fund was raised through private equity and personal funds. The slate currently includes Antecedent, the directorial feature debut of Dan Bronzite.
