TFE THE FILM ENTREPRENEUR: A Newsletter for Independent Filmmakers and Investors

LOUISE LEVISON, EDITOR AND PUBLISHER

VOL 20 NO. 1 JANUARY-FEBRUARY 2013

SUNDANCE 2013: SALES GOOD, BUYERS BUSY

Buyer activity at the 29th

edition of the Sundance Film Festival indicates that the indie film

market is staying strong. Attendees were more interested in seeing films than going to late night

parties. They were there to buy, acquiring 45 films – the second highest number in this century.

While 2011 saw 51 films sold with buyers starting to refill inventories, the total fell to 39 films

in 2012, with the next highest being 30 in 2009.

Nor has that old canard of “too many independent movies being made” seemed to dampen

anyone’s desire to create more. The success of a film like Beasts of the Southern Wild has more

impact on filmmakers than anything from the naysayers. There were 12,146 submissions (429

more than 2012) for the 2013 festival, including 3,033 feature–length films and 8,102 short

films. Of the feature film submissions, 2,070 were from the U.S. and 1,974 were international.

103 feature films at the Festival were world premieres. Those numbers show how slim the

chances are of being accepted to the festival. Having gone to the festival since 1988, I fight

against the idea that you have to know someone to be accepted. Considering the number of slots

for features, it can be that the odds are high. For short films, the odds are astronomical. In

speaking to the difficulty of making these decisions, Sundance Director John Cooper, who has

worked as a programmer there for 23 years, told Variety, “There’s as much pressure, if not more.

We reject films that would have been shown 20 years ago.”

Having attended the festival since 1988 myself, I also should note that the viewpoint of the

programmers tends to change from year to year. Whether or not there is a planned genre theme,

many films will tend to fit into a few categories. New this year was the number of comedies.

Fourteen comedies and comedic dramas played in three of the festival’s most prominent sections

― U.S. Dramatic, Premieres and Park City at Midnight. Compare that number to the five

comedic movies in those divisions in 2010. Really exciting to me is that eight of the sixteen

competition films were directed by women. Director of Programming Trevor Groth said that

they did not plan it. The 50/50 split was not noticed until after all the films had been accepted.

Halley and The Look of Love are each counted once.

Linear services are services that present programs at specific times as part of a program schedule, such as

a conventional over-the-air television service. Non-linear services are services for which the consumer

selects the viewing time, such as video-on-demand

CIS is the Commonwealth of Independent States, which is a loose association of former Soviet Republics

formed during the breakup of the Soviet Union.

COMINGS AND GOINGS

Visual effects studio Rhythm & Hues filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on February 11, 2013.

The BAFTA and Annie Award-winning VES company is the lead on Fox's Life of Pi, the film

that won the Visual Effects Oscar for R+H’s work just hours after disgruntled unpaid former

employees staged a protest outside the Dolby Theatre, where the Oscars were held. In the

meantime, all of R+H’s offices were remaining open and they have obtained commitments for

financing to complete projects in house, according a press statement from President of the Film

Division Lee Berger. “Following the filing, R+H will be seeking to secure financing for future

growth. I believe that we are going to come out of this situation stronger, more efficient, and as

prolific as we are now.” On Feb. 15th

Universal and Fox obtained permission from the bank to

make $17 million in loans to the beleaguered VFX house to complete work on the studios’

R.I.P.D. and Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters, respectively. In addition, Legendary was able to

pay $4.9 million to have Seventh Son finished.

Participant Media has formed the Participant PanAmerica film fund and expects to develop

and co-finance 10-12 Spanish-language films a year with Mexico’s Canana, Chile’s Fabula and

Colombia’s Dynamo. The five-year agreement follows Participant Media‘s recent co-financing

of Canana’s Chavez and Fabula’s No, an Oscar nominee for Best Foreign Language film.

Participant CEO Jim Berk said the deal will enable the company to expand its reach into the fast

growing Spanish-speaking market and give it access to a talent pool of “fresh and highly creative

filmmakers who are looking to explore important contemporary issues in exciting ways.” The

initiative will be led by Jonathan King, EVP of narrative production for Participant. Canana was

founded in 2005 by Diego Luna, Gael Garcia Bernal and Pablo Cruz.

Producers Nick Taussig and Paul Van Carter are leaving Revolver Entertainment to set up their

own finance and production outfit, Salon Pictures. The new London-based company is backed

by private equity. The aim is to work on films budgeted at $1 million to $10 million that have

international reach. They plan to work with some EIS funding for productions, as well as

accessing public funding and tax rebates in the UK or abroad. The initial slate of projects

includes five films. First up is an untitled cop thriller set in Los Angeles, to be directed by James

Nunn and likely to shoot by the end of 2013, according to Taussig. The other projects will be

readied for shoots in 2014 and beyond.

Indomina Releasing has closed its North American operations. The move comes three years

after parent company The Indomina Group established the branch to acquire and distribute genre

fare for his new company. Still in its library is Sundance 2012 pickup Filly Brown for which the

company has been seeking a third-party to release. The Indomina Group told deadline.com that

it was still planning on sending a team to Berlin and plans to focus on producing original content

out of its Dominican Republic facilities, shifting to feature films with more commercial studio

appeal. ◙

SUNDANCE FINANCING PANEL ADDS PITCH FEST

The popular Sundance Film Festival panel “Financing Your Film: Avoiding Pitfalls from

Development to Distribution” was extended this year to include a pitch competition. The

panelists, including your editor, held a seminar in the morning; then in the afternoon, we

reconvened to hear pitches from various filmmakers. The winning pitch received $1,500

graciously offered by Crowe Horwath, and a second winner received $500.

The day was such a success that the panel and pitch session are coming to the Showbiz Store and

Café in Los Angeles on March 29-30. “Financing Your Film: Avoiding Pitfalls from

Development to Distribution” will take place on Friday, March 29th

from 2 -5 PM. The panelists

will include Louise Levison, President of Business Strategies; Hal “Corky” Kessler,

Entertainment Attorney, DL&E ; Todd Hein, Senior Manager Federal Tax Unit, Crowe Horwath;

Ronnie Yeskel, Casting Director; Gil Aglaure, Executive Producer & President of Koan

Distribution; David McDonald, Phaz2; John Corser, Producer; and Moderator: Marshall Bear .

The Pitch Fest takes place on Saturday, March 30th

from 10 AM to 4 PM for a maximum of 75

participants. The judges will be Louise Levison, Hal “Corky” Kessler, Tamara Aglaure of Koan

Distribution, Ronnie Yeskel, David McDonald, John Corser, Bill Duke, Director/Actor and Tony

Eldridge, Producer. There will be three prizes: $1,500 for Best Pitch plus donations of services

by members of the panel, $750 for 2nd

Best Pitch and $500 for 3rd

Best Pitch.

Need Money for a Movie? Don’t Go in Empty-Handed. Have a Business Plan.

The benefit of using a reliable business plan to raise financing for a film is that it allows the

investors and the filmmaker to gauge the potential success of a film. A polished business plan

with projections based on the worldwide results of other films and with clear explanations about

the industry, markets and production personnel attached to the film is far more effective than an

incomplete document that leaves prospective investors wanting more information. Contact

Louise Levison at [email protected] to find out how you can put her more than 20 years of

experience as a Film Business Consultant to work creating a business plan for your film.

Louise Levison, President of Business Strategies, specializes in creating business plans for film

and consulting on other aspects of independent filmmaking and distribution. Levison is the

author of Filmmakers & Financing: Business Plans for Independents (Seventh Edition, Focal

Press ). The sixth edition of this book is available in a Chinese edition published by Hindabook

(www.hindabook.com) in Beijing, China. She also is publisher/editor of the web publication

you’re reading now, The Film Entrepreneur: A Newsletter for the Independent Filmmaker and

Investors. Levison’s clients have raised money for low-budget films such as The Blair Witch

Project, the most profitable independent film in history, and for companies raising as much as

$300 million. Among other clients’ projects are The Prophet (an animated film based on Kahlil

Gibran’s book), Unlimited (Nathan Frankowski), Redemption (Clayton Miller), Moving Midway,

Redemption Road, Haunted (2012), High School Sweethearts, The First of May, The Open Road,

Aluna, Yak: The Giant King, Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman, My Father

and the Man in Black and Michael Winslow Live. Among her corporate clients are Danny

Glover’s Louverture Films (2008 nominee for Best Documentary Academy Award Trouble the

Water) and his Louverture Film Fund I, The Pamplin Film Company (Hoover), Hurricane Film
