Getting Started
How do I open a Filmbankmedia account?
You can register with us here. Please note that a £150 security deposit will be required.
It is fully refundable upon closure of your account. It takes up to 5 working days for your account to be confirmed.
What is the Single Title Screening Licence (STSL)?
STSL stands for Single Title Screening Licence and is a film screening licence available on a "per film, per screening" basis.
What is an "outdoor venue"?
An outdoor venue for a film screening event is any non-permanent structure without four walls and a door. For example, a tepee or a marquee.
What is the £150 security deposit for and when do I get this back?
This is a holding fee to activate your account and is fully refundable upon account closure, subject to all rental films returned, box office reports submitted, and invoices paid.
Please note the deposit amount is separate from the licence fees for your screening(s).
