Making a Fundraising Demo That Actually Gets Funding

With internationally renowned story consultant Fernanda Rossi, the Doc Doctor, author of the book Trailer Mechanics and consultant of over 300 films.

"Can I see your trailer?" A fundraising trailer can make or break your film. It can get you funded or it can put you on the "passed" list. Stop the guess work of what works and what doesn't with this full day workshop for producers, directors, writers and editors. If you already read or are about to read the book by the same name, this workshop is a chance to see all that theory in action with real life examples. You will:

  • Learn the most common mistakes when making a trailer and how to avoid them
  • Learn the foundational story structures for fundraising trailers
  • View trailers before and after Fernanda's doctoring.
  • View successful fundraising trailers.
  • View fundraising trailers from the audience followed by discussion.

Bring your work-in-progress for analysis and discussion! (Not required to attend) There will also be a raffle at each class for a $100 gift certificate!
