Sourcing independent financing for films is becoming increasingly more difficult. With government subsidies and grants being cut, banks becoming increasingly more cautious about whom they lend money to, which is compounded by the fact that international sales deals are becoming less and less lucrative, what options are there out there for Independent Filmmakers? 

  • What are the financial options available to you as filmmakers?
  • How do you increase and maximise the value of your budget?
  • Do you know of the tricks of sourcing financiers and the ways of increasing your success rate of securing finance?

Independent Filmmakers need to become increasingly more savvy about where finance is sourced and how to maximise the money they receive.

 

This seminar focuses on the business of understanding every aspect of making the most from your limited or restrictive budgets.  This seminar will provide the facts on:

  • The reasons for having a financial plan
  • Financial management and planning, pre, during and post-production.
  • Secrets of getting more out of your budget
  • Funding and sourcing finance for your film

This seminar will enlighten you and provide you with the tools to move forward and develop a financial plan which maximises your asset.
