Did you know it's not as simple as just the screenplay?

Are you thinking about the business of filmmaking? Most filmmakers focus on the creative but the business side is what gets your project made, funded, and seen.

Are you thinking about your chain of title?
Do you know how much IP to give to an investor?
How to monetize on your project?
How to speak to sales agents?
How to approach festival agents?
Do you have a distribution plan before you shoot?
Are your investor documents ready?
Do you know what a TV Showrunner actually does?
