Writing Decks and Business Plans for Independent Film

SEE EVENT DETAILS
If you want to make a successful independent film, you're going to need 3 things.  Distribution, Recognizable name talent, and money.  If you want to get the money you need, you're going to need some documentation.  Part of that will be an investment deck, and you might also be required to write a business plan.  Don't know how?  Don't worry, we got your back.
This event is a low-cost Seminar and Q&A with an executive producer with 10 films currently in distribution.  In it we'll cover:

The Slides in a Deck
The sections in a business plan
What needs to be in an executive summary
Who needs a business plan
Who needs a deck
The basics of structuring a financial mix.  

Join us Saturday, September 22 for a full 5-hour financing workshop that builds on the business planning skills briefed in this 2-hour Q&A. Join us Saturday, September 22. 
This event has scaled admission costs.  The first 5 tickets are 1 dollar, the next 10 are 5 dollars, the following 20 are 10 dollars, and the remaining 5 are 20 dollars. Act fast if you want the lowest ticket price.  
We have volunteer opportunities if you come in late and can't afford the ticket price.  Student Pricing is available, please contact us with questions relating to student pricing.
