Media Production Fund

Producing film, television, or digital media in the Yukon comes with unique opportunities—and real costs. For creators looking to develop or produce original content while building local economic impact, the Media Production Fund offers meaningful financial support. Delivered by the Government of Yukon, this fund is designed to strengthen the territory’s screen-based industries by helping projects that create jobs for Yukoners and contribute to a sustainable production ecosystem.

The program supports a wide range of production-related activities, from early development through to post-production. Funding can help cover expenses such as production personnel, equipment rentals, editing and post-production work, and even unit publicity during production. It’s particularly well-suited to projects that can demonstrate clear market interest, such as interest from broadcasters or distributors, and that place Yukoners in key creative or technical roles. Funding amounts vary by project, with contributions structured to offset eligible costs rather than replace private investment.

For producers and media businesses planning a Yukon-based project, the Media Production Fund can make the difference between an idea staying on paper and reaching the screen. Understanding how your project aligns with the fund’s objectives, economic impact goals, and application requirements is the next step in deciding whether this opportunity fits your production plans.
