Tool proposed by CTG

Financing

Support fund

As a major partner of the film and audiovisual industries, the Collectivité Territoriale de Guyane is continuing and strengthening its support for this sector, in partnership with the Centre National du Cinéma et de l'Image Animée (C.N.C.), professionals and associations.

The Fonds territorial de soutien à la création cinématographique et audiovisuelle is aimed at film and audiovisual professionals. Beneficiaries are writers or directors (writing grants and writing bursaries) or production companies in the form of commercial companies, acting as line producers, with head offices in French Guiana, France or Europe (the European Union and the European Economic Area).

Grants are awarded to support professionals in the various stages of their creative work:

  • Writing assistance: Textual definition of the content of a film or audiovisual work.
  • Development assistance : Steps prior to production of the work.
  • Production assistance: Production of the work.

A reading committee made up of professionals from the sector meets twice a year to study the applications and issue an opinion before they are presented to the CTG's Permanent Commission.

The Lodeom Act

The Lodeom Act is an exemption from social security and family allowance contributions granted to companies located in the French overseas departments of Guadeloupe, Saint-Barthélémy, Saint-Martin, Martinique, French Guiana and Réunion. It applies to employees' remuneration. The Social Security Financing Act for 2021 allows audiovisual production in overseas France to benefit from the Lodéom exemption according to the enhanced competitiveness scale. Audiovisual production employers with fewer than 250 employees and annual sales of less than €50 million are thus fully exempt from employer contributions up to 2 Smic since January 1, 2021.

The tax credit

Under certain conditions, the audiovisual tax credit allows a production company to deduct 20% of certain production expenses (so-called eligible expenses) from its tax bill for documentaries and 25% for fiction and animation, up to a ceiling of €1,150 per minute for documentaries, €3,000 per minute for animation and €1,250 to €10,000 per minute for fiction.
