Residency

Room to make the next one

Breme's creative partner program for working filmmakers and designers, by application. A place comes with the plan, granted and free. Breme is a studio in the browser: you direct, and the frames are generated where the production lives.

The offer

Two ways in, one application

You apply once. A person reads the work and decides which of these you are offered.

Granted

A place in the Residency

Max for working filmmakers, Pro for working designers, free. There is no card and nothing to cancel. A place runs 90 days and renews itself for another 90 whenever you are making work.

25 places, so this is the part we read slowly. We are looking for working practitioners with finished work in public and something they want to make next.

Paid

The working rate

For working professionals who would rather buy than be picked, and for everyone a full cohort cannot fit. 30 days free, then 50 percent off the same plans for 12 months, then list price.

A card at signup, and you can cancel at any time. No cap on how many.

How it works
Apply with work
Send links to what you have shipped and one line on what you want to make next.
A person verifies it
Someone at Breme reads your work against the same bar we use when we reach out directly.
A place, or the rate
Most approvals are a place, granted free. Working professionals we cannot fit are offered the working rate instead.
It renews while you work
A place runs 90 days and renews itself for another 90 whenever you are making something. Nothing to remember.

Work by members, generated on Breme

You would be joining the first working filmmakers on it. What this group says it needs is what we build next.

Written and directed by Mike Bennion, a Reply AI Film Festival finalist. Every frame was generated on Breme, in his first two weeks on it.

A free plan is the going rate

Every serious program in this category hands a working professional a plan. Some of them pay cash for posts on top. A plan is table stakes, so it is the weakest reason to apply here and we would rather say so than dress it up.

The production lives here

A script, a shot list, a board, the elements, the cut: one place, one set of references, one continuity. A plan on a model site buys you generations and leaves the film to you and a folder. Breme is a studio in the browser, and the frames are generated where the production already is.

The ask is one sentence

Breme may feature work you make on Breme, with your name on it. There is no posting quota, no payment per video, no exclusivity and no training rights. A program that pays per post is buying your feed. This one is asking permission to point at your work.

The exchange

What Breme asks for, in plain words

Breme may feature work you make on Breme in Breme marketing, always with your name and a link. That is the whole exchange, on both tiers.

Ownership
Your work stays yours. Breme claims none of it.
Exclusivity
The license is non-exclusive. Take the work anywhere, to anyone.
Distribution
Featuring means Breme marketing channels. Nothing beyond them.
Training
Membership grants no training rights. Training consent stays the per-media setting you control in your library, untouched by this.
Quota
There is none. Nothing you make has to be posted, and nothing you post has to mention Breme.
Renewal
A place renews on work, read by a person. It is never a number pulled from your account.

Crediting Breme in your own work is encouraged and never required. A credit kit is there if you want it.

Applications are read by a person, and every applicant gets an answer by email.

One per line: a film, a reel, a portfolio, anything public

One line is enough

Questions

How the Residency compares

Is the Residency a creative partner program?
Yes. The Residency is Breme's creative partner program (CPP), the kind of program other platforms also call an ambassador or partner program, for working filmmakers and designers. Approved members get a granted place on a full plan, Max for filmmakers and Pro for designers, chosen by a person who reads their work.
Does Breme pay members per post?
No. There is no payment per post, no posting quota and no exclusivity. Members agree that Breme may feature work they make on Breme in its own marketing, always credited by name.
Do I need a follower count to apply?
No. Applications are judged on finished work in public, read by a person. Audience size is not part of the bar.
What does a place cost?
A granted place is free, with no card and nothing to cancel. It runs 90 days and renews while you are making work. Applicants a full cohort cannot fit are offered the working rate: 30 days free, then 50 percent off for 12 months.
Who owns the work I make as a member?
You do. Breme takes a non-exclusive license to feature it with your name and a link, and no training rights.
