the Famous film Studio is actually on the verge of bankruptcy. The promise to remove the 15 paintings a year, announced a few years ago, there was a soap bubble. Two projects that were to become the drivers – removed Sergey Snezhkina detective during the Civil war “Indemnity” and a war criminal romance of Alexander Kasatkin “Three days until spring,” didn’t meet expectations. While the “thumbnail” will not give the cinema Fund debt and 51 million rubles, support from the Fund will not. A score to settle with the Studio and the Ministry of culture. The penalty for failure of terms of delivery of the film “Boy Russian” the Ministry of culture has added to 2.2 billion rubles of the debt of film Studio VTB Bank more 1 million 300 thousand rubles. The Studio has lost the right to participate in the pitching of the Ministry of culture and cinema Fund.
the New management is still have tried and have applied for support from four of his paintings, but was refused.
“For unknown reasons” no one’s ever worried that the film Studio has not received the required her money, or at least reports from a Chinese company Hippo Film Company, which for 5 years was granted exclusive rights to the show “Golden collection” of “Lenfilm” in the network “Internet” in China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. “For some reason,” flew to Italy for about EUR 3 million advance for the installation of studios Atoms in the Italian framework contract (sound dubbing/information of phonograms). Single story – with joblocom. On “Lenfilm” the time has stopped and 90s if it were not in all or almost all in poor condition.
to clean up the Augean stables (and in a literal sense – was removed more than 600 tons of household and construction waste) accounted for new leadership, “Lenfilm”, went to the Studio this winter. Pandemic passed six months, and managed if not to break the deadlock over the film Studio, then at least to clean it, and return part of the films from the “Golden collection” (part of the pictures and is in the hands of the St. Petersburg commercial firm “twin SP” with a share capital of 10 thousand rubles, in 2009 with the rights to broadcast the collection of “Lenfilm”, gets a multimillion-dollar income). With the victory of “Lenfilm” was the transfer of the rights to the live webcast, including those movies that are “twin SP”. And most importantly – determined rescue plan of the Studio.
the First stage – “Recovery” – provides the output of the Studio from the verge of bankruptcy and optimization of operating costs. The second stage – “Recovery” – increase used in the film production capacity and upgrading outdated equipment. “Revival” – a reboot of rental policy, the implementation of projects on creation of an educational and cultural center in the Studio. The fourth stage – “Development” – involves the implementation of large-scale joint projects on the improvement of “Lenfilm”, Vnedrenie�� new sources of income, the creation of the project “Lenfilm” as a cultural centre of gravity”.
Bet “thumbnail” doing on the young. In mid-August, will sum up the results of the competition, the web series will launch on the YouTube channel of the Studio project view review, where actor Alan Ishmael with twisted, like Hercule Poirot, mustache will tell the Internet audience about the “Golden collection” of “Lenfilm”. The project starts with the “Ladies with the doggie”, then “King Lear” and “Wedding in Malinovka”.
to Promote the hits of the old “thumbnail” on the new “thumbnail” want right now with… graffiti. Inside levelmaster quarter it is planned to organize a new public space – the pedestrian street “Passage Aquarium”. In full scale it is formed in the fourth stage of the Renaissance of the Studio, while a group of graffiti artists will paint the two facades of the Studio. The foundations of the works – heroes and footage from langelmavesi paintings. The new space was called KINO’s CORNER every weekend here will be held master-classes, concerts, performances, lectures, film screenings and creative meetings. “Of course, you need to have a new “Lenfilm” became an area for young people. To know: autumn is here, the festival of debuts that the Studio dumped the conditions for first-time filmmakers that their ideas will find their place here. Studio should be an open area for those who want something to do in the film,” – said the correspondent “RG” creative producer, “Lenfilm”, Igor Kopylov.
military-specific rescue plan, beautiful ideas, energetic young people, already came to work at Lenfilm. The case for “small” – Federal, and perhaps regional support. Most of the Studio respawn can not afford. Now, “thumbnail” talks with a number of organizations to attract General investment. I hope that the ice will finally begin to move.
