Become a Member

Film Producing Members, who are willing to join the Association will be enrolled in their individual names and not in the name of the company or Firm. They will be enrolled either as Primary or Associate or Probationary or Corporate member based on their eligibility as given below.

Primary Members (with voting rights):

A Producer, who has produced and released at least 2 films in the last 5 years, shall be termed as Primary member as defined in the Rules of the Association. Once a Producer becomes a Primary member, he or she shall continue to remain as a Primary member of the Association. However, subsequently, to be eligible to vote or contest for Management Team position in an election, they should have produced and released at least 1 film in the previous 3 years.

Senior Producers as Honorary Primary Member:

A Senior Producer, who has produced and released at least 5 films in their lifetime shall be considered as Honorary Primary member. They will have voting rights if they have produced and released at least 1 film in the last 3 years. If they have not produced and released any film in the last 3 years, they will remain as Honorary Primary member without any voting right.

Associate Members (without voting rights):

Producers, who have produced, censored and released at least 1 straight film in the last five years, shall be Associate Members of the Association. Once they cross the eligibility factor for Primary Membership defined above, they shall become a Primary Member, which shall be decided on the 1st day of the Calendar Year by the Association.

Probationary Members (without voting rights):

Producers, who are producing a straight film now (means, new Producers) shall be under this category. They will become Associate Members once their film is released, as outlined in our Bye-Law.

Corporate Membership:

Corporate Houses or Public Limited or Private Limited companies can become a Primary or Associate or Probationary member, subject to the number of films produced criterion, by authorizing a representative from the Company. While such authorized Corporate membership person can vote in the elections, he or she cannot contest for any Management Team position in the Association, which is reserved only for individual Producers.

Interested members can register with the Association by filling in the Application form and submit at our office with all the necessary documents and membership charges.
