Welcome to another action-packed episode of the Filmmaking Stuff podcast! I'm Tom Malloy, and today we're diving into common mistakes in film funding that you should avoid at all costs.
First, we discuss the dangers of appearing too desperate when pitching to potential investors. Desperation can emit negative energy and turn off investors, so it's crucial to project confidence and nonchalance.
Next, we talk about the mistake of rushing an investor. Deadlines may loom, but pushing for a quick turnaround can create doubts and red flags, making it harder to secure funding.
Lastly, we explore the risks of starting production with insufficient funds. Shooting a film with only a fraction of the budget can lead to desperation and rushed decisions, ultimately jeopardizing the project.
