Screen Business Essentials: Navigating Growth – Following our highly successful 2-day Screen Business Essentials course in October, Screen Business Essentials: Navigating Growth, held in conjunction with the Australian Film Television and Radio School (AFTRS), is back to provide a practical, real-world guide to provide early to mid-career producers with a deep dive into option and co-development agreement deal terms plus finance plans and recoupment waterfalls for feature film and long-form scripted TV.
Legal and finance decisions made at the very beginning of a project will impact the life of the project for many years—even decades—to come. Knowing your rights and being well-informed and strategic is essential to ensuring maximum returns on both a creative and financial level.
Key course takeaways include:
- Explore key deal terms and considerations when optioning a project.
- Analyse the structure of a co-development agreement.
- Develop strategies for protecting your investment and partnering for success.
- Learn the strategy behind creating a finance plan for a $5M feature film and a 6 x 1hr TV series.
- Identify current buyers in the marketplace and what sort of deals they are doing.
- Understand the expectations of equity investors and what they will receive in return.
- Master the complexities of recoupment waterfalls.
- Learn how to make informed decisions when it comes to navigating superannuation and your own financial security.
