Why give?

  • Your donation helps emerging filmmakers turn their ideas into fully realised projects, supporting everything from equipment to production days.

  • Independent creators often lack access to funding. Your support gives them the chance to share their stories and grow their careers.

  • Every contribution directly impacts local creative communities and strengthens the future of film in Nottingham and across the UK.

  • You’re helping talented storytellers bring original, meaningful films to life — not corporate productions.

  • Creative work moves culture forward. Your donation helps ensure important stories are told.

  • Funding local film projects means supporting real people, real visions, and real opportunities.

"Lu’s Art Factory gives creative projects the support they truly need. Their guidance and dedication make it possible for ideas to become real stories on screen. I’m proud to be part of this mission."

Wayne Nelson, Authentic Tales

Independent filmmaking is powerful — but often underfunded. Your contribution helps local creators cover essential costs such as equipment, locations, editing, and post-production.
Every donation supports a new story being brought to the screen.
