  • News: Yard Kings Wins RTS Award | Franzi

    Yard Kings, directed by Vasco Alexandre, wrapped up a fantastic festival circuit with 2 Royal Television Society Awards - the oldest television society in the world with the UK King Charles III as patron | Franzi is a film production company and creative agency based in Copenhagen, Denmark. We specialise in film, commercials, corporate content, music videos, and still photography. Yard Kings Now on Apple TV NOTES FICTION COMMERCIALS PHOTOGRAPHY TALENT PRODUCTION SERVICES CONTACT SEARCH TALENT WORK F.SHORTS CORPORATE CONTACT SEARCH SEARCH CONTACT SERVICES CORPORATE TALENT WORK Back Yard Kings Now on Apple TV Yard Kings is now streaming on Apple TV, bringing its award-winning story to an even wider audience. After an incredible run on the festival circuit — culminating in two Royal Television Society Awards, the UK’s oldest television society with King Charles III as its patron — Yard Kings is ready to move from the big screen to your screen. Yard Kings grew out of its director Vasco Alexandre's desire to write about the subject of domestic abuse, and his fascination with the view of the world through a child's eyes. "Since the beginning, we wanted to portray a strong social component" says Vasco. "It was a real challenge for me as Portuguese to nail the nuances of the British culture". I accepted a lot of collaboration from as many people as possible during the process". The story focuses on 11-year-old Ellie, who can't stand her mother's new partner. There's a sequence involving an activated car-crusher, and to film a scene with the young actor playing Ellie's friend on top of a truck cabin, the crew worked for days to make sure it was safe. The child actors were completely opposite characters, very shy and very confident - "I had to talk to them in separate ways" says Vasco. "But in the end I saw a chemistry. I’m really glad we cast them". Producer Billy King recalls being “shocked” when they won the RTS Award. The jury praised the film’s “real depth of maturity in filmmaking — utterly compelling and very touching, particularly the way the young actors portrayed a carefree joy and hope in their careworn lives.” SHARE MARCH 05, 2024 Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Copy link Facebook X (Twitter) WhatsApp LinkedIn Copy link BACK

Hollywood actress Kate Winslet presented the award and a cash prize to the director Mai Vu. Viguier-Hovasse, a representative of the award's sponsor, emphasised that the short animation genre signifies the future of the film industry. The aim is to inspire women filmmakers to express their creativity and bridge the funding gap, which contributes to the higher number of men in the film industry.

Linh is a Vietnamese single mother who’s built a stable life for herself and her son in the US, but her life balance is thrown off when her father visits from Vietnam and insists on making gỏi cuốn for her son. When this seemingly innocuous conflict arises, “Linh is confronted with the past and culture she left behind and the question of where it belongs in her family’s new life,” the short synopsis reads.

  • Franzi Shorts: FAQ

    Franzi Shorts is an international screenplay competition inviting writers and creative producers to submit short film ideas. The winning script will be fully financed and produced by our team. Franzi Shorts FRANZI X SIMPLERENT SEARCH CONTACT CORPORATE F.SHORTS TALENT WORK SEARCH CONTACT SERVICES CORPORATE TALENT WORK ABOUT FRANZI SHORTS PAST WINNERS FAQ APPLY GET YOUR SHORT FILM PRODUCED ABOUT FRANZI SHORTS PAST WINNERS FAQ APPLY GET YOUR SHORT FILM PRODUCED We've put together a list of the most commonly asked questions about the programme below. If you don’t see the answer you're looking for, feel free to reach out to us anytime at +45 71 473 473 or franzishorts@franzifilms.com Can I apply if I have never wrote a film before? Yes, the program is designed to support emerging writers, so it’s completely fine if you’ve never written anything before. We’ll primarily evaluate the potential of the project rather than the writer’s experience. How many times can I apply? You can apply with as many projects as you like within the same season. If you submit more than one project, feel free to contact us for a discount code. Which projects should not be submitted? We are unable to select scripts that: Are commercial in nature, such as advertisements or music videos. Are primarily created as art installations intended for display in museums. How far along do I have to be with my project to get selected? There’s no requirement for how far along your project needs to be. We primarily assess the concept and its potential. Even if you're working with a very early draft, we’ll have development sessions to help shape it in the right direction. Can I direct the film if my project goes into production? The program is designed with writers in mind, and we are only able to bring the selected writer to Copenhagen for a few days. As remote directing can be challenging, we generally prefer to collaborate with a local director. However, we will take the candidate’s directing experience into account, and in some cases, co-directing it's a possibility. Does the film have to be shot in Copenhagen? No, but we strongly prefer to shoot in Scandinavia, as our partners are based here and we can make the most of our local resources. This also allows us to work closely with the team and ensure the best possible outcome for the project. Can I apply with a co-writer or a producer? Writing teams are welcome to apply. However, please note that Franzi’s in-house production team will handle the film’s production.
