UK VFX tax credit uplift will start on Jan 1st | UK Screen Alliance
Today (30 October 2024), the Chancellor of the Exchequer confirmed an increased tax incentive for spending on visual effects (“VFX”) in the UK, which has been warmly welcomed by the UK’s VFX industry.
Delivering Labour’s first Budget since coming to power in the July general election, News Today Rachel Reeves announced that VFX spending in the UK will attract a net rebate of 29.25% and News Today would be exempt from the overall 80% cap on spending eligible for film and TV tax relief.This had been proposed by the previous government in March 2024, but the early election meant that the uplift was not implemented, leading to an anxious wait for the UK’s VFX community.
The Labour government has identified the creative industries as one of eight growth-driving sectors within its Industrial Strategy, and the confirmation by the Chancellor of the VFX uplift, means that the UK is now set to attract an additional £175 million per year of spending on VFX for film and TV, an increase of over 45%, and to create 2,800 new jobs.
In a very welcome addition, requested by the UK Screen Alliance, the Chancellor has brought forward the starting date of the uplift, originally expected to be 1st April 2025, so that VFX spending incurred in the UK from 1st January 2025 will be eligible for the new incentive.This will avoid productions delaying their spend in order to qualify for the rebate, at a time when VFX companies need to get the work flowing as they recover from last years writers’ and actors’ strikes, and the general production slowdown. Claims for the rebate can be made from 1st April.
Earlier this year, the Treasury had proposed to exclude costs relating to Generative AI from the VFX uplift.However, following consultation with the industry, this proposal has now been dropped.

John Galliano is set to leave Maison MargielaJohn Galliano is set to part ways with Maison Margiela after 10 years at the helm of the storied fashion house. The brand and designer confirmed the news today, having announced it to the company earlier this week. The news comes after a great year for the house, which saw huge enthusiasm for the spring/summer 2024 couture show in January and also saw an impressive year on the red carpet for the brand with Galliano personally dressing the likes of Kim Kardashian and Zendaya for the biggest fashion event of the year, the Met Gala. 
The house is yet to name a successor but Renzo Rosso, president of the OTB Group (which owns Maison Margiela), News Today described his partnership with Galliano as “enriching, life-changing and groundbreaking” to WWD. The designer himself shared a lengthy and heartfelt message to Instagram, where he spoke about how transformative his time at the house has been for him personally. “Today is the day I say Goodbye to Maison Margiela,” he wrote.”My heart overflows with joyous gratitude, and my soul smiles. For I am 14 years old today — 14 years sober… The greatest, most precious gift [Rosso] gave me was the opportunity to once again find my creative voice when I had become voiceless. My wings mended, and I better understood the all-consuming act of creativity.” 
Galliano joined the house in 2014, having previously headed up his own fashion label while working as creative director of Givenchy and later Dior, where he was let go after a very public drunken anti-Semitic rant.
