We are proud to be collaborating with Saffery on this session, Maximising the Benefits of the UK AVEC.
This session will explore how productions can maximise the benefits available under the UK Audio-Visual Expenditure Credit (AVEC); including the additional value arising from the used or consumed rules, neutral costs, and qualifying contingent compensation.
