Independent film has seen huge return on investment recently. Some examples include TALK TO ME which was made for under $5 Million and grossed over $90 Million worldwide, GET OUT, which was made for under $5 Million and grossed over $250 Million worldwide and GOD'S NOT DEAD which was made for $1.1 Million and grossed over $60 Million! Big returns like this make investors excited and if you are armed with the right tools, you can find investors and raise money for your project.
In this private Stage 32 five-session lab, you'll discover everything you need to find, pitch, and secure quality investments from someone who has raised over $15 million in financing for her own projects.
Your host, Sara Elizabeth Timmins, was on the producing team of the Emmy-nominated docuseries MCMILLIONS for Mark Wahlberg's company, which premiered at Sundance and she is currently developing and raising financing for several feature films. You've also seen her work on HBO, The Hallmark Channel, Starz, Showtime, internationally, and in theaters. Each of her projects has featured award-winning talent and international distribution.

I have a PG-13 romantic comedy which I wrote for a single location, Malibu, California. I registered it with the Writers Guild; but I couldn't get any of my actors (who have worked for me on the last two feature length movies,) I couldn't get them to email me and ask me to have them star in MALIBU SUNRISE -- which is a mystery to me. I posted this project on my Facebook page for 3 years without a single response. Therefore, I would appreciate some advice -- Victor Alexander vicalexander37@gmail.com

Tell me, Sydney, can I get a Producer to finance Malibu Sunrise? You can read my screenplay without committing yourself to produce it; I will attach it to your email address if you request it. I have written the screenplay myself and I'll direct it. I can direct the 35mm feature film for one million dollars!

Sara Elizabeth is the best - such a geneorus educator and experienced producer - I cannot recommend this lab enough for anyone looking to get their film financed. When you need to do work like this, learn from an expert. Flagging for my network. Thanks, Sydney S!

Thank you, Sam.
All you have to do is request my screenplay and I'll attach it to my email back to you. If you like it, you can Produce it, and I'll direct it, shoot it, and edit as well.

I’m attending 2nd class tonight. Looking forward to seeing Sara and everyone. I actually have two scripts: a romcom and a true life drama and I can’t decide which one to focus on in class. Probably the romcom because it has been developed most. Check out my new website: simplyfilmprod.com see you tonight!

Looking forward to another session!
Another problem is that actors don't submit pictures and resume.

Sadly, I've missed the first 3 sessions due to travel, work and family commitments. I've been reading the assignments and will catch up for the last two workshops. Is there a way to view the recordings? They are X'd out on the course page. Looking forward to finally being part of this. Cheers
