A variety and diversity in the selected projects ranged from animation to feature as well as TV-series, documentaries and New Media. During the Forum 115 individual meetings between Financiers and Production Companies was held. The Forum is also considered a networking space and the coffee breaks, lunches and dinners an important part of the event as given opportunities for networking and even pitching between producers. Further project development took place as part of the individual meetings. The event has as well an educational side to it. We have set off the planning for the 4th Forum BUFF:FF 2010. More interesting projects in development, special focus on Cross Media, strong financiers, upcoming co-operation with Pygmalion Plus, work-in-progress showing pitched projects from previous Forums and the co-operation with new network Kids-Regio, initiated during BUFF:FF 2008 will all together show an evolving BUFF:FF -profile. Warm thank you to all participants – and especially to the pitching Production Companies, the Financiers, the Selection Committee, Cine-Regio and Linda Paxling for a great job, lots of inspiration and idea’s full of potential for the future.
