**MiCROFiLM** is a call for projects designed to support the **production of first or second animated films of +/- 2 minutes** . Selected projects benefit from the help and advice of our team at every stage of creation. Around thirty short films have been produced since the first edition in 2017\. Will you be among the next directors to benefit from our support?

  
An initial selection will be made by the producer of Camera-etc based on compliance with practical arrangements and consistency with the purpose of this call. A second selection will be made by an internal jury composed of two animator-directors, an audiovisual technician, the producer of Camera-etc and a broadcasting/communications officer. The selection criteria will be as follows: originality of the project at the narrative and visual level, technical feasibility within the time and framework given, interest of Camera-etc's contribution in supporting the project. 

The MiCROFiLM support system aims to produce an animated film of at least 2 minutes (excluding credits), as defined in Article 1 of these regulations. The author benefits from the support and infrastructure of Camera-etc at each stage: writing the script, graphic research and technical choices, storyboard, production, filming, sound design, editing, mixing, post-production. The promotion and distribution of the film are also handled by Camera-etc.

  
The MiCROFiLM support system is funded exclusively by Camera-etc. The Producer is fully responsible for the development of the studio's infrastructure, equipment, and staff. Camera-etc is committed to providing MiCROFiLM directors with the following resources:

  
* **Equipment and infrastructure:** all equipment necessary for graphic research, manufacturing, animation, sound, editing, mixing and post-production, provided that this equipment exists within Camera-etc. This may include a graphics tablet, a multiplane, a green screen, a camera, stop-motion materials, a computer equipped with ad hoc programs, the sound booth, etc.

  
* **Personnel:** The entire Camera-etc team will intervene according to the needs of the project at the various stages of work and the availability of the different team members. The support of a producer, an audiovisual technician, and an animator-director is guaranteed at a minimum, from November 2025 to November 2026.

  
Camera-etc will assume all costs related to the production, as long as these costs concern the intervention of studio staff and the provision of studio technical equipment. In the case of exceptional additional costs (travel by public transport, accommodation, etc.), these expenses will be examined on a case-by-case basis by the producer, who will have the final decision.
