STAGES OF FILMMAKING — DEVELOPMENT AND FINANCING IN FILM

How does a movie actually get made? In this series, we’re walking through the process, one step at a time. In this episode, we’re kicking it off with development and financing in film. Along the way, we will have producer Alex Saks offering insight into the process, how development works in film, how to raise money for a movie, packaging a film, and more.

HOW DEVELOPMENT WORKS IN FILM

Obviously, the first step in any film is the idea itself. But where do ideas come from? Scripts are born in a number of ways, including spec scripts written by the writer without any guarantee of being made. Another way producers look for material is through existing intellectual property (IP) like books, magazine articles, video games, or even theme park attractions. No matter the source, the screenplay should be in tip-top shape before it moves onto the next step: financing.

FILM FINANCING 101

One of the biggest hurdles in filmmaking is money. For all its creativity, cinema is equal parts business. Movies are expensive to make, market and distribute, but, when done well, can reap millions for the investors. Every project is a gamble so it’s no surprise that getting money for a project can be difficult, even for studios and A-list stars.

Film funding can be divided into two general categories: studio financing and independent financing. For bigger studio projects, there are established avenues and investors involved. However, since those budgets are typically much higher, the risk involved is still high. For indie filmmakers, it can be more difficult to find funding, even though their budgets are comparatively lower and they have less chance being seen and/or making their money back.

While this may be the most difficult stage of a film’s lifespan, with a great idea and some savvy financial partners, anything is possible.
