Local chains Ster-Kinekor and NuMetro, have, to a degree, started adapting the movie experience such as with VIP lounges and large format experiences such as Imax and 4DX. However, SA is a land of great disparity and nuanced socioeconomic layers. So, hyper-customising the offering to suit micro-localised different preferences is essential to ensure all audiences get to enjoy a cinema experience that they can appreciate, and are willing to pay for.
On the funding side of the industry, the department of trade, industry & competition, whose film production incentive is absolutely critical to local films, initially provided a boost to the service-industry . But it has failed the industry dismally in the past few years. In short, the incentive provides rebates of up to 35% for production expenditure for the first R6m, with 25% being rebated thereafter subject to certain requirements.

The entire process needs an overhaul, so as to encourage a commercially orientated mindset.
