<p class="text-align-justify"><strong>UK Film Production</strong></p>

<p class="text-align-justify">Although filmmaking has been halted owing to Covid-19, 2020’s official data indicate that there was an investment of £2.84 billion in the UK on film and high-end TV production. Considering the disruptions in the production plan lasting five to six months, this value is only down 21% from 2019.</p>

<p class="text-align-justify">The year began with a bang but production was halted by the end of March. Although some post-production and visual effects work were permitted to proceed, actual production did not resume until mid of July.</p>

<p class="text-align-justify">Inward films like "No Time to Die" and "1917" that was filmed in the UK but were financed and managed from the outside, contributed to about 90% of Britain's £1.95 billion investment in 2019. This demonstrates the desirability of the UK as a filming site for international projects.</p>

<p class="text-align-justify">In the last quarter of 2020, the industry, however, made a strong comeback with a robust £1.9 billion spent on cinema and high-end television which was the third biggest three months spend recorded.</p>
