Financial Plan & RoadmapSection 06
Each picture is co-financed, not funded from this budget alone. National and regional film funding, brand sponsors brought in by attached talent, and product placement are assembled per title on top of the production budget, through roughly 600 sponsor and partner relationships worked each year across the festival network. The effect is that the capital in this request buys more finished pictures than its face value implies.
