Ready to Invest?

Our offering involves preferred stock ownership, giving you a stake in the film alongside us. Investors are prioritized to recoup 110% of their principal investment before profit-sharing begins. Following this, investors receive a pro-rata share of 50% of the backend, along with exclusive perks outlined above.

How does the film make money?

There are a variety of ways for films to generate revenue:

  1. Box Office: The most traditional and significant revenue stream for films is box office earnings. When a film is shown in theaters, a portion of ticket sales goes to the film's distributor and production studio. The percentage varies depending on factors like the film's budget, distribution deals, and performance.
  2. Home Entertainment: Films generate revenue through home entertainment sales and rentals, including DVD and Blu-ray sales, digital downloads, and streaming rights. This revenue stream has become increasingly important with the rise of streaming platforms like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, and more.
  3. Television and Cable Rights: Films can also earn revenue through licensing agreements with television networks and cable channels for broadcast rights. These agreements may include both domestic and international distribution.
  4. Ancillary Markets: Films can generate revenue from ancillary markets such as airline and hotel screenings, educational distribution, and licensing agreements for theme park attractions or museum exhibitions.
  5. International Sales: Films can earn revenue from international distribution deals, including theatrical releases, home entertainment, and television rights in foreign markets.

How are profits distributed?

  1. Recoupment of Costs (Expenses): The first step in the waterfall is often the recoupment of production costs and other expenses associated with the film. This includes expenditures such as production costs, marketing expenses, distribution fees, and overhead costs. These costs must be recouped before any revenue is distributed to investors or profit participants.
  2. Debt: The next step is to allocate revenue towards settling any outstanding debts or deferred payments that the production has incurred. This includes any loans or financial obligations the production may have, as well as any fees that have been deferred for producers or directors involved in the project. (Daniel Film LLC is currently debt free!)
  3. Investors' Preferred Return of Capital: Once costs are recouped, the next step is the return of capital to investors. Investors receive their initial investment amount plus 10% before any additional profits are distributed.
  4. People making the project don’t participate in profits until investors are paid back first.
  5. Residuals and Guild Payments: If applicable, payments to guilds (such as the Screen Actors Guild) and residuals to talent for their ongoing participation in the film's success may be distributed at this stage.
  6. Profit Sharing: Once all prior obligations are fulfilled, any remaining profits are distributed to investors based on a pro-rata share of 50% of the backend.

Future projections are not guaranteed.
