What Is A Producer? Why Are They Important To The Industry?

The term "Producer" has lost some of its value in the film and media industry because it is often given out as an incentive for providing financing or connections in creative projects. However, many individuals work as producers at every stage of a creative project's development. They ensure that essential elements such as financing, contracts, staffing, payroll, production, distribution, and more are successfully acquired and implemented.

Producers are the driving force and employers in the film and media industry. Their business skills are based on project management and can be transferred to both the commercial and creative sides of entertainment. Based on localized market research since 2017 and development since our inception in 2022, the Incubator by AFMI Productions has refined a comprehensive training program for those interested in pursuing a career as a producer.
