BoostHbg is a 3-year initiative based in Helsingborg that nurtures exceptional emerging talent within the moving image industry in Skåne. We are a pioneering program that aims to develop new storytelling techniques in close cooperation with the various branches, industry professionals and rising trends.

Our target group is primarily those who currently work within the field but who have not yet established their professional names in Skåne. Qualified individuals must reside in Skåne and will preferably already have relevant education and some professional experience with recognized production companies.

Our vision is to create new storytelling methods within the moving image sector. Regardless of what the images depict and their genre (commercial, informative or documentary film), a compelling story will have a solid beginning, middle and end. A successful BoostHbg project will build a dramatic story while developing new and gripping methods to deliver it. This is the foundation and focus of our organization.

BoostHbg’s task is to support, develop and strengthen a chosen talent’s abilities with their self-initiated projects. BoostHbg is not a continuing education program. We work to empower budding talent. BoostHbg considers talent from a whole perspective, identifying both strengths and needs. For example, an employed individual and a freelance artist are seen as equals when ascertaining the potential to develop that creativity into a successful talent.

BoostHbg works in close cooperation with Helsingborg Stad, Film i Skåne, Media Evolution and Region Skåne.
