My name is Lauren Clarke, I was born and raised in Newfoundland, and am now based out of Halifax, NS acting as the Media & Entertainment Specialist at RBC covering the Atlantic Region. I work with producers to support them with interim financing on their projects across a wide variety of live action and animation productions – also known as “bridge financing”. Most producers will reach out once they are close to or have a locked finance plan in place. I encourage producers at any stage to reach out and connect to learn more about interim financing and to see if their project would be the right fit.
RBC is also committed to opening doors for emerging BIPOC film and media producers through our BIPOC Emerging Producer Lending program – feel free to reach out to learn more.
