The average film takes between 2-3 years to get produced. What if you can do it in half the time or in less than a year? Time is our most valuable asset and we can’t waste it by using methods that will prolong the process.
Recently one of my filmmaker clients raised $100,000.00 in development money using my material in 4 days! Another raised $20,000.00 in development funds within weeks of ordering my business plan package! She already has 10 additional investors lined up. These are back up by real testimonials!
I’ve been the Line Producer/UPM on SAG signatory films ranging from $150,000.00 to $2,500,000.00. I was responsible for doing the budget, schedule, payroll, insurance, hiring key crew, negotiating with vendors, contracts, etc. I’m the film production geek that makes all that happen! Due to our limited resources in South Texas, I took it upon myself to learn every aspect of the business of film. Friends started asking me to help them with their business plans, budgets, pitch decks, and mood reels. When we produced our first film on our own, I was responsible for finding a sales agency or distribution company that would put us in the market (iTunes/Best Buy/Amazon/etc.) And I did. To date I’ve put 6 feature films in the market.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with actors such as Danny Trejo, Bill Oberst Jr., Ricardo Chavira, Riker Lynch, and UFC Champ Cain Velasquez, to name a few. I devoted every waking moment to learning the nuts and bolts of pitching your film to investors, sales agencies, actor agents, and distribution companies. Plus, I attend the film markets.
With the increasing demand of original film programs, it’s a perfect time to be a filmmaker! Want to get your film on Netflix, Hulu, iTunes, Redbox, and Amazon? Without the proper funding your film & screenplay will collect dust and never hit the market!
I only take a few filmmakers as clients a month. If you see an immediate need for my services don't hesitate to start a conversation.
