Survey of the South African film and video industry: final report

The South African film and video industry has hitherto been under-researched. In view of the paucity of statistical data, the National Film and Video Foundation (NFVF) commissioned the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) to conduct a survey of the skills employed and activities undertaken by the industry. The intention is that the data collected should be used to inform the development of policy for the sector and to set priorities for the NFVF research programme.

Abstract

The South African film and video industry has hitherto been under-researched. In view of the paucity of statistical data, the National Film and Video Foundation (NFVF) commissioned the Human Sciences Research Council (HSRC) to conduct a survey of the skills employed and activities undertaken by the industry. The intention is that the data collected should be used to inform the development of policy for the sector and to set priorities for the NFVF research programme.
