Balancing acts:incentive schemes logics in small European film markets

Jaka Primorac and Jakob Isak Nielsen address the production service avenue. Their chapter, “Balancing acts: incentive scheme logics in small European film markets”, focuses on two very different production incentive schemes, the Croatian scheme established in 2012 and a completely new production incentive scheme that is to be launched in Denmark in the Spring of 2026. The chapter compares the schemes, discussing both their similarities and their different ambitions that speak to the schemes being incorporated into very different film ecosystems.
