Downloadable Business Film Financing Books
I just finished a brand new book by Jason Brubaker of the web site, Filmmaking Stuff, "The Indie Producer’s Guide to Financing Your Movie." The guide covers more than just financing - it is both inspirational and powerful. The FilmProposals Business Plan tools give you the facts, the numbers and the "how to" - but Jason's book gets you off your you-know-what to DO it! He removes the film making barriers... whatever they are for you.
For every one of the hundreds of steps in the process of filmmaking, there is SEVERE competition. Jason
teaches you how to deal with it, improve from it, and MOST importantly, how to quash the competition by simply being better than they are. The book goes deeper than film making..it will likely inspire you in other areas of your life as well.
About half way through, the book gets into how and where to connect with wealthy, and likely accessible, potential investors. His approach and information is very tactical...not just pipe dreams. Prices range from $47-$147, for all 3 guides, worksheets and hours of audio.

Downloadable Indie Film Distribution Books
Some of the best information and tools to learn about Indie Film Distributors is at FilmSpecific, a company started by Foreign Sales Agent, Stacey Parks, who has secured distribution for hundreds of independent features and programs worldwide, and likely the best person to guide you through Indie Film Distribution.
The Film Distribution Kit uses the knowledge Stacey absorbed after years as a successful agent, including her invaluable "Master List" to create a roadmap for you to successfully distribute your independent film.
The kit includes Indie Film Distributors who actually buy independent films, a clear explanation of the complex world of independent film distribution, a distribution agreement breakdown and the proper way to submit your film to distributors and sales agents. What I love about downloadable books is they include the actual TOOLS you need to proceed, like worksheets and contracts.
