Question 1

Hi, just to clarify, investor return is capped at 1.25x - no % of profit on top of that return?

Accepted Answer

Hi Alan, thanks for the question! Yes it's 50% of net profits for Wefunder investors. We've reached out to Wefunder since for some reason it's not saying it correctly on our page and seems to be some kind of technical problem. We're hoping they'll have this fixed today. The terms are and will show: 1.25+ 50% Net Profits. We're also happy to jump on a call with you and talk more about the movie with you!

Question 2

Perfect! This is a good one, I'm glad to be in. I may do more. What is the maximum you will raise, and conversely the least amount you need to fund the movie? And you are not taking on any other debt to fund the movie outside of Wefunder that will have to be paid off? Thanks a...

We'd love to have you on the team! The maximum we will raise is $400,000. The least we need to start principal photography is $100,000 on Wefunder which including mine and Zach's private money would put us at $175,000 which is enough to get principal photography done. If we only raise the minimum we would either raise additional funds for post editing after shooting or we would raise that privately. We're not taking on any other debt outside of Wefunder that has to be paid off. And we will pa...

Question 3

The perks seem to have disappeared.. and one more question why is the raise so low? Are you guys planning on just selling this off to a streamer? I take it your not premiering it nationwide with such a low budget?

Accepted Answer

Hey Jon good to hear from you! The perks are still there and are still the same, are they not showing on your end? Please let me know if you don't see them as on our end I see them. We are planning a theatrical release for sure. Our raise is $400k on Wefunder but we are also putting in some of our own money as well so the budget will be bigger. Plus we are getting some things nearly for free or with big discounts, normally the movie would cost closer to $750-800k if we were paying full price ...

Question 4

From what little I know of the film industry, there is considerable rigging of the accounting system and that movies "never" actually show a net profit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hollywood_accounting#:~:text=Hollywood%20accounting%20(also%20known%20as,record%20profits%20fo...

Accepted Answer

Hey John, thanks for the question. That is for sure a problem in the industry, and honestly a problem with start ups in general that they do that. We will have full transparency on everything money is used on including a detailed budget breakdown which everyone will be able to see. Also keep in mind, that unlike some movies funding here we plan to use Wefunder for our next movie(planning another one next year) so we want to make 100% sure that our investors here are happy so that they invest ...

Question 5

I was wondering when the movie "Four Doors" is supposed to be on the big screen, and if the investments are only for that or any other movie coming out in the future? Thanks in advance

Accepted Answer

Hi Robin, thanks for the question! So we anticipate it being ready for release at the end of 2023. We would first go for the big film festivals, like sundance and SXSW, then after we would find out with our distributor(gravitas ventures) what kind of theatrical release we could do. After that we would focus on VOD and getting it on a streamer like a Netflix. The investments for this movie are only for this movie. We are talking about in the future allowing investments into the production comp...
