The PRODUCTION FARM project was created in 2015 as a project supporting young producers and production managers from Polish film schools. The first three editions were based on development preparations for the production of 3 feature films, which were created as a result of these activities and gathered in total almost 1.2 million admissions in cinemas. PRODUCTION FARM IV is another, definitely more advanced stage in the development of this project working on a general scheme of film production based on research, cost estimate analysis, statistical surveys of hard market data and looking at different variants of projects in the field of production planning.  As part of the current edition of the program, we created a prototype algorithm for the valuation of production costs and promotion costs based on the factors influencing the cost estimation process. Systemized factors allowed to shorten the construction of a detailed cost estimate and receive a precise result, by using an algorithm sensitive to key factors of production and promotion costs.

This allows quick calculation and creating a reference point at the initial stage of scenario analysis.

​As part of the project, we made a detailed analysis of every element of the cost estimate (according to the cost arrangement in force in the PISF application) and shortened the gigantic equation of almost one thousand items to a short, convenient form of calculating the cost of production.

We are also conducting qualitative research, a series of meetings and interviews with leading representatives of many functions in the film crew. In addition we  reached out for the support of a sociologist and psychologist and we developed a possible model of production process optimization, that affects not only the cost effectiveness, but also the comfort of members the film crew.

As a result of industry meetings, a standardized P & A cost estimate was also prepared.

In addition to the prototype of the application named FILM FACTORS | PL (currently a version for Polish film production / plan for EU co-productions is being developed), which became the slogan of this edition of the PRODUCTION FARM - as part of its program we also put in goals allowing the examination of ELEMENTS AFFECTING THE WORK SATISFACTION AND DISSATISFACTION OF THE MEMBERS OF THE FILM CREW and METHODS OF OPTIMIZATION OF THE FILM
