Independent filmmakers by nature are
creative individuals whose primary tools are their imaginations and
ingenuity. They are cinematic storytellers. While some independent films
take the film festivals by storm—distribution deals, sales to video
outlets and cable television—others fall short. Luck and timing play roles
in most success stories, but many independent filmmakers have taken the
next step: They have carved out a clear-cut plan of action—a business
plan—for their projects and careers, analyzing them for what they truly
are: businesses.
This work helps to connect the creative process and the business side of
independent filmmaking by providing a practical guide for assembling a
business plan that filmmakers can present to producers and potential
investors. A sample business plan and interviews with independent
filmmakers and industry executives are included.
