Ep 34. How do you get your film funded? The three questions you must know how to answer.
Are you considering making a documentary? Do you already have a story in mind? When you’re deeply passionate about a topic or cause, documentary films are a fantastic way to share the story and have others discover or learn about it as well.
Once you’ve crafted your work and put it out into the world, documentaries have the power to shift hearts and minds. I’m sure you can already imagine the buzz as the lights come up and you see your audience enthralled and inspired, clapping with admiration and a new passion for the content of your film. It’s the end goal many, if not all, filmmakers strive for, including myself.
In this episode, I’m going to share some of the ways you might go about funding your documentary projects – such as crowdfunding or sponsorship– to keep your spirits up and show you what’s possible.
And I’m also going to cover the 3 key questions I get asked from potential funders when I approach them about supporting my work, so you know how to prepare ahead of any meetings with would-be funders.
Let's get into it.
