Eye Catcher Global

Originated from Hong Kong, the Eye Catcher Global (ECG) aims to bring together the creative and production communities of the Asian and international independent filmmaking industry, gather resources to incubate film projects with unique visions and strong personal styles, and facilitate Hong Kong filmmakers to go global. 

The ECG embraces diversity and disruptive innovation. It will discover and cultivate film talents and productions with a spirit of self-production and entrepreneurship, and will attempt to create an exclusive international platform for connection, exchange and collaboration. 

Through a series of events including the International Pitching Forum, Showcases, Panel Discussions on Global Independent Filmmaking, Hong Kong Filmmakers in Focus, the ECG aspires to incubate and promote more independent films with a wide variety of genres, such as drama, documentary, experimental, animation and hybrid works. It not only helps filmmakers obtain funding, awards and opportunities, but also introduces and facilitates the exchanges of experience and networks of international peers so that independent filmmakers may go further for longer. 

The ECG is the international exchange platform of the Eye Catcher Images project, established by the Renaissance Foundation Hong Kong. Eye Catcher Images explores new perspectives and possibilities in filmmaking, production and distribution through the Creativity Camp and Incubation program. The ECG, as the third stage of Eye Catcher Images, creates opportunities for international pitching, film showcases and exchanges, building close connections with the international community.
