Fundraising for Independent Filmmakers
Event Type:  Funding Opportunities
08/10/2011 @ 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm
New York , NY

There are many ways to raise funds for the multiple stages of producing and distributing an independent film project, and none of them are easy. Added to this, unstable markets and uncertain economic prospects are making traditional funding sources less dependable. What to do? We suggest listening to the experts and learning from their successful (and sometimes, not successful) experiences.
