INDIEFILM FINANCING

How to Find Investors & Finance Your Film

Who's going to pay for your movie? You don't need to know rich people. You need to know how to find the people who already want to invest in projects like yours. Steve Balderson has directed 20+ globally distributed feature films, all financed outside the Hollywood system. In this masterclass, filmed live in Barcelona, he shows you exactly how he did it. YOU WILL LEAVE KNOWING: * Where and how to find investors for your film * The five kinds of investors, and what makes each say yes * How to build rapport and earn their trust * What to say when you approach someone about your project * Communication techniques from Steve's NLP training * The gentle art of persuasion, and how to use it Two hours of instruction, then a 30-minute group Q&A where you can ask Steve about your project. "Raising funds now seems obtainable." Jeremy J., Denver, Colorado, USA "This workshop was fantastic." Angela H., Los Angeles, California, USA WHO THIS IS FOR: Filmmakers, actors, writers and producers, from beginners to seasoned pros. Entrepreneurs raising money for other kinds of projects will find the techniques just as useful. ABOUT STEVE: One of the world's leading renegade filmmakers.
