Raising funds for your indie film is so hard and confusing! You have a great project in-the-making yet the financing options and the state of the industry seem overwhelming. Whether this is your first film or twentieth and you find yourself asking:
“How will I close my budget gap?”
“Where can I find new funding sources?”
“I have a strong vision and plan for my project, but where do I go from here to get the financing off the ground?”
We all know that grants exist, but how do you find them? And how do you write a successful proposal that stands out? Other than grants, how do you approach funders and keep them interested – what sort of presentation materials do you need and how do you sustain support? What is fiscal sponsorship and is it a good option?
Meet Easmanie Michel and Joanna Rudolph from NYWIFT and get all of your questions answered! This event is FREE and open to the public but you must REGISTER IN ADVANCE
