Book Three deals with EQUITY FINANCING

Equity financing is the "cold hard cash" that you need to get your film or TV show into production.

Practically every production will need some form of equity financing, so filmmakers need to know how to raise it, what to do with it, and how to get it back to their investors.

But what does equity financing really mean? What are you getting, and what are you giving away? And where the hell do you even start?

This book is aimed primarily at two sets of people: filmmakers (including writers, directors, and producers), who will learn how to raise and spend money responsibly, and investors, who will learn to invest wisely

Filmmakers and investors need to know what the other one is thinking, what they are looking for, and how to create the perfect partnership that can be repeated time and time again.

For filmmakers, how do you make your project attractive to an investor, and how do you show them that you will handle their money responsibly? And when you raise that money, then what do you do with it?

And for investors, how do you look beyond the glitz and the hype to find the project and the people that you can feel passionate about AND still make money? And even when you invest equity financing, how the hell do you get that money back?

We'll discuss:

• How investors should choose the projects they work on, the people they work with, and some of the pitfalls they should avoid
• How filmmakers can appeal to investors, and create a partnership that can be repeated time and time again
• How the money flows from investor to production and (hopefully ) back again
• Net profit participation, finance plans, recoupment waterfalls, development funding, slate financing, overhead deals, crowdfunding, and much much more...

Equity financing is much more than simply writing a check...

This book will explain to you how equity financing works, and help make your next project a successful AND profitable one
