Hi ,
|
We came across this really detailed article about how two successful brothers have raised money for over 4 film productions. There is so much to learn from how these successful producers have made their films. In fact, we learned SO MUCH from the Montierth brothers, their process, business savvy and their movies, we reached out to them! - Donovan and his twin brother, Adam, founders of Brothers' Ink, live far outside of LA or NY and did not have previous movie experience
- Yet, they have produced dozens of feature films ranging in budgets from $350K -$8M
- Donovan has taken the time to write out step by step how they did it. (Thank
you!!!!!!)
If you want to learn how a short script became a short movie (with no words!) with a HUGE built in following and social media proof (over 47k reactions and over 5k comments), check it out. The market is highly targeted and built in - along with specific release dates geared towards this market. THIS is how you approach film making as a business, while still keeping all your creative control. You'll see how that short lured super
famous Hollywood actors to almost beg to be in the film, while also taking the time to put together a Pitch Video for investors to see. It makes the potential investment soooo real! I mean, who doesn't want to see Dick Van Dyke do this project @ 94 years old??????? Talk about passion. (Full Disclosure - this project got sidelined by the pandemic and the casts' age, but there is still gold to learn) The pitch is a not a mini movie - which can backfire on you
if the production value is sub par and you're asking investors to "imagine" it being better - it's a heartfelt and sincere pitch. You'll also want to note how they are using a Movie Prospectus (and yes, YOU can download this EXACT prospectus for yourself - you're welcome), a look book,
script coverage and the other tools in their arsenal. Have a read: Building an Independent Film Package and let us know what YOU think! Did you get any ideas from it? Were you inspired? How will you use these ideas to move your film forward?

"Love the site! Everything is working exactly as I had hoped thus far. The templates are user friendly, easy to navigate, and incredibly informative. It's definitely a crash course into the economic side of the industry.
People forget the old
saying about Show Business, "business is twice as long as show, and it might be twice as important!" - Josh "Undervalued! Honestly, the more I reviewed the assets of this package, the more I thought there had been a mistake, and that I was accidentally given a higher priced kit. It's unbelievable the amount of time, research, education and competency that is offered here. What this will save you in preparation is only surpassed by what
this will earn you in execution. If you're looking for ROI, this is the Slumdog Millionaire of Film Business Toolkits. Get it...and get to work!" "Invaluable Resource - This is my first venture into fund-raising and Film Proposals is the perfect software to help me get started. Clear guidance through the complex business of film financing." - Richard "Financial Film Package Invaluable and Well Worth the
Money!!" I've made short films before, but this is my first feature, and the first film I've tried raising money for. This template, actually the whole package, has been invaluable and well worth the money I spent on it. So much information is packed into what I got that I'm almost dizzy from it all. "Thank you again so much. In no small part because of
you, your fine staff, Nash & Associates and your incredible body of templates and instructions I’ve been able to raise over $400,000 dollars so far for the film. I honestly don’t think I would have been able to raise a dime if not for the detailed and professional deck I was able to put together following your guidelines." - Michael "I love this program. I'm new to this industry and this is helping me become more
professional. I have spent a lot of time working on my own and getting things accomplished but my projects are getting bigger so as I grow and my team grows with me, these tools will help me to communicate better. Having the basic fundamentals can go a long way in this industry and it make it easier to work with other. Thank you for providing a platform for individuals like myself.!!!" - Owner of K. Simmons Productions "When I presented my project to my
investor, they were blown away how prepared I was and rarely see filmmakers have half the documents I supplied. It showed I was serious as a filmmaker and business person. "I purchased the Gold package with the PPM. The PPM took all the heavy lifting off and saved me so much money that would of cost me thousands from an attorney. The package got me prepared from business plan to financials. I did my research on my film and similar films and just plugged in the
info. I had everything prepared and professionally done. On top of that, they offered a review after I followed the steps they gave me. !!" - Angelo "Just want to thank you for your materials and help over the past year. I could not have raised the $1.5 million or made this film without the materials you provided. The bargain of my career!" - James "Finished my deck on Friday. Got it into a few potential investor’s hands over
the weekend, and by Monday had 3 out of the 10 available memberships spoken for at $160K each. The revenue projections and film comparable services by NASH, along with the business plan and pitch deck templates were instrumental in presenting the project in such a way that financially minded potential investors could understand the movie business, the market and how my project could possibly give them a substantial ROI. Best money I’ve ever spent." -
