Film Finance Online
Each year, thousands of potential
filmmakers ask, "How can I finance a
feature film?" Yet, until this
unprecedented new book by John W.
Cones, there has been no
comprehensive answer to the
question. Writing in a clear,
informative style, Cones outlines and
explains the numerous and diverse
forms of financing available to
independent film producers. As an
objective adviser, he refrains from
advocating one form of financing over
another, choosing instead to provide
specific, concise information regarding
the many possible financing
strategies.Cones groups his forty-
three methods of film financing into
four major areas: industry financing,
lender financing, investor financing,
and foreign financing. In each of the
forty-three chapters, he focuses on
one kind of film finance, summarizing
its financing vehicle, entity, and
technique or transaction and
analyzing its advantages and
disadvantages. At the end of each
chapter is an extensive bibliography of
additional information about the
particular form of film finance
discussed. In covering the scope of
film financing, Cones ranges from a
discussion of studio-based
independent production company
methods to an examination of lender
financing without distributor contracts
to a detailed analysis of active and
passive investor vehicles and foreign
tax shelters and incentives.Although
the book focuses on financing feature
films, its information is relevant to the
financing of other kinds of projects,
such as short films, documentaries,
videos, and multi-media and theatrical
endeavors. For those individuals
