Last night on the Aubrey Masango show , Mpumezo Vuzane () highlighted ‘Sweat Equity’ — a must-know concept for filmmakers seeking funding.

Sweat equity is not just about hard work; it’s a mindset. It refers to the non-monetary investment filmmakers or producers contribute to a project through their labour, research, preparation, and time. When financial resources are limited, your dedication and effort can become the driving force behind getting your project off the ground and attracting investors.

Understanding and embracing this approach is crucial when preparing to secure funding and build partnerships.
