The incentive plan consists of both companies co-financing international projects. Alvernia Studios representatives told FNE that they want to produce two or three big titles per year with budgets of 3 million EUR and 50% financed by Alvernia and Fu Works. The programme is being created to reach English-language mainstream films that are planned for broad distribution and have a cast and director in place. The shoot can take place anywhere in Europe, but post-production must take place at Alvernia Studios. The incentive plan was announced by both companies during the American Film Market on 13 November 2013.
Alvernia Studios, located near Krakow, is one of the more modern film studios in Europe involved in the production of international features for theatrical release, video games, music projects and commercials.
