Scottish Film Council

The Scottish Film Council was established in 1975 to support and promote the film industry in Scotland. It aimed to enhance the production of films, foster talent, and increase public engagement with cinema. The council focused on funding, providing resources for filmmakers, and encouraging the development of Scottish stories and talent. In 2004, it merged with other organizations to form Creative Scotland, which oversees arts and culture funding in Scotland today. The legacy of the Scottish Film Council continues through ongoing support for film-making and the promotion of Scotland as a thriving film location.
