In 2014 Tenerife Tourism Corporation assisted through its Tenerife Film Commission (TFC) a total of 68 national and international film productions, amounting to 8 million Euros spent on the Island: an increase of 400% the previous year, with revenue on 1.5 million Euros.<\/p>\n
Of the 68 productions assisted in 2014, eight were feature films (five more than in 2013). The most notable were \u201cNobody wants the night\u201d, directed by Isabel Coixet and counting with the participation of Juliette Binoche and Rinko Kikuchi and \u201cMa Ma\u201d, by Julio Medem, starring Pen\u00e9lope Cruz and Luis Tosar; and \u201cFelices 140\u201d, by Gracia Querejeta, featuring Maribel Verd\u00fa and Antonio de La Torre. The list is completed by equally important films, such as \u201cTiempo sin aire\u201d, \u201cPlaying Lecuona\u201d or \u201cDon\u2019t grow up\u201d (all are Spanish), the Russian \u201cMafia\u201d and the German \u201cWinterkartoffelkn\u00f6del\u201d.<\/p>\n
In addition to the films, in last year\u2019s balance the photo shoots stood out. There were 26, followed by TV programmes (17). Germany (21), United Kingdom (14) and Spain (10) top the ranking of productions. This meant a total of 454 days of shootings in 2014. The numbers of managed permits rose to 57, while the applications assisted were 205.<\/p>\n
Along with the island\u2019s qualities as a shooting set, Tenerife is providing post-production services through the HPC-Teide supercomputer, the second most powerful computer in Spain. Animation shootings are benefitting from it.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Balance since 2000<\/b><\/p>\n
Since it started in 2000, Tenerife Film Commission (TFC) has assisted more than a thousand shootings (feature films and short films), photo shoots, music videos, television series, programmes and commercials. The economic balance is more than positive: 54 million Euros revenue, generated on the Island. It should be noted that 36 feature films have been shot in all of this time, notably films like \u201cClash of the Titans\u201d and \u201cWrath of the Titans\u201d (2010 \u2013 2011, U.S.A.), \u201cUna hora menos en Canarias\u201d (2010, Spain), or \u201cFast & Furious 6\u201d (2012, U.S.A.).<\/p>\n

2015: a new panorama<\/b><\/p>\n
Some productions in 2015 are taking advantage of the locations and benefits Tenerife offers to shootings. \u201cLazarus\u201d feature film, by the Canarian Mateo Gil and with the presence of actors such as Oona Chaplin (Charles Chaplin\u2019s granddaughter), or \u201cDoctor Who\u201d, a popular BBC TV series, are only two of them.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Attending to events and festivals is another strong point of Tenerife Film Commission. Events like Berlinale and March\u00e9 du Film in Cannes help to promote the island\u2019s incentives on international film scene, and Cannes Lions, focused on commercials. Tenerife Film Commission will also try to determine how to attract animation and post-production industries.<\/p>\n
