Description
What You’ll Learn In Your Step by Step Guide to Producing a $1 to $3 Million Movie?
Session 1: Create a Project That Sells and Delivers on Screen
Not every genre and not every script works for distribution in the US and abroad. Knowing what kinds of stories sell is the essential first step. Securing and protecting the idea is as important as developing a strong script that can attract meaningful talent, distribution, and financing. It is critically important to know how to break down that script into a budget that delivers a high production quality as well as a commercial film.
What sells where – Choose the right genre that sells in the US and abroad
The Rights – Secure the rights to a project and apply the most optimal terms
The Story – Develop a strong story and apply techniques that help sell it
Packaging – Attract the right director and cast, and apply appropriate terms
Budgeting – Important steps to consider when budgeting a low-budget script
Session 2: Sales and Distribution
Low-budget films have the advantage in that they can make a huge profit from distribution. But they often also have the disadvantage of not getting any distribution at all. A large percentage of low-budget films never make it on the silver screen. In this week’s session, we’ll discuss the steps low-budget producers should know to make sure they get distribution and what options are available to optimize distribution revenues.
Distribution – Understand your options for distribution, and avoid the most common pitfalls
Distribution Value – Understand the value of your film in the marketplace today
Sales Agents – Understand why you need one, where to find one, and optimize your terms in working with sales agents
Streamers – Understand the reality of selling your film to a streamer in today’s marketplace
Financing from Distribution – Understand how you can make money before your film is shot
Session 3: Financing Low-Budget Films
While low-budget films have a huge upside, it is not easy to secure funding for them. Knowing what steps to take to identify the finance sources that work best for low-budget films and choosing a project and a distribution path that works for investors and other financing partners is essential in securing funding for a low-budget film. In this week’s session, we’ll identify the various finance sources that are available today, how they fit best together to optimize profits, and what steps to take to secure them for your low-budget project.

Session 4: Avoid Pitfalls & Mitigate Risks
When you go out with your film project and talk to investors, you often find yourself fighting against Hollywood’s generally negative reputation when it comes to film financing and making a profit. That conversation can change when investors realize you understand the risks and know how to mitigate them and make a profit with the project. This week you’ll learn about important terms and conditions that protect you from pitfalls, help establish profits, and enable you to answer tough questions from investors, so they feel good about investing in your film.
