The Investment prospectus and Budget...
No one told me that writing the investment prospectus for this film project would be almost as hard as writing the script...
... but it's pretty darn close. I worked on a draft of the prospectus while the budget was being created (no, I'm not going to tell you what we're making the film for... those film acquisition folks will find out and gain some ground prior to negotiations) and thought that it was coming along nicely... until my lawyer took a look at it.
The big question is how long does it need to be and how much do I need to explain about the project for a potential investor to have enough information to make a decision as to whether or not this project is right for them. Since ballooning to 19 pages of single spaced text, I've cut the page count down to twelve and a half pages and finally, I think it flows the way I want it and explains the project with the right amount of detail... but we'll see what the attorney says tonight after reading the latest draft.
I've primed my potential investors (read friends and family) with the screenplay to read and now I'm about to start sending out the investment prospectus and budget looking for letters of intent to invest to then use to drum up more business. If anyone out there in cyberspace is interested in this project, please click ont he "$" link above and send and email to investors@createabullfilms.com stating your interest.
I'll keep you posted on the response as they come in... thanks for stopping by. EB
