Again, it would seem appropriate to highlight the cost of achieving international<br />
recognition for the „higher level‟ programmes.<br />
34 Where possible, scheme-specific management, marketing and distribution costs (to the NCF)<br />
have been added, including the attribution of the total costs of the management company for the<br />
short film schemes (ie Lifesize Pictures). The latter has simply been split in four and added to each<br />
scheme - an admittedly crude allocation, but there does not appear to be any reliable basis for<br />
allocating the costs of Lifesize to the activity it manages on behalf of the UK Film Council.<br />
