Is your company planning to shoot its next film, video or photo project in Brazil? If so, this project may need to be registered with ANCINE, the Brazilian government’s film agency.

In this video we will explain to you exactly what you need to know about the ANCINE registration process and how we at BPS can help you through it.

So, your company is going to Brazil for a shoot and you read somewhere that in order to do that you need to register the project with ANCINE.

You may be asking yourself, what is ANCINE? Well, let me explain:

ANCINE is a Portuguese-language acronym that stands for AGÊNCIA NACIONAL DO CINEMA, or National Film Agency in English.

ANCINE is the Brazilian federal government agency responsible for regulating the audiovisual sector in the country. According to Brazilian law, every international company that wishes to shoot a documentary, commercial, fiction film or some other type of video projects in Brazil, needs to register their production with ANCINE.

And how do you go about doing that? You may be asking… Well, the first important step is: you need to partner with a local Brazilian production company that is properly registered and vetted by Ancine.

ANCINE requires international shoots in Brazil to be co-productions between the foreign production company, and a Brazilian production company. The co-production deal ensures the government that
1) the Brazilian production company will pay all Brazilian taxes resulting from the production activities and
2) the Brazilian production company bears responsibility to make sure the production follows Brazilian law

Once you have a deal with a local production company, the next steps for ANCINE registration are simple:
1) You need to give your Brazilian partner a list of the names of all technicians, talent and other crew members traveling to Brazil as well as copies of their passport info pages
2) You need to give your production partner some minor details about the nature and scope of the production including a project synopsis and a production schedule

As a Brazilian production company that specializes in bringing foreign crews to shoot their projects in Brazil, BPS is more than used to dealing with the ins and outs of ANCINE registration and would be very happy to be your partner on your next Brazil production.

As co-producers, we always specify that we come in as non-owners of any Intellectual property in your project. Our agreement with you is simply a “work-for-hire” agreement which will satisfy all of your clients’ demands for IP ownership over the footage or photos taken. BPS in this case would solely be your operational partner that ensures that your project in Brazil happens legally, efficiently and smoothly.
