A FREE Online Webinar with Film Producer Sara Elizabeth
After 20+ years of working in independent film and raising money without industry shortcuts, we’ll walk through 5 real tips and strategies that have helped us get films funded — the kind of small shifts that unlock big movement.
Sara Elizabeth has raised real investor money for her indie films—multiple times. No studio backing, no trust fund. Just solid strategy, good storytelling, and a lot of trial and error. In this webinar, she’s breaking down some things that have actually worked for her so you’re not left guessing how to do it on your own.
In this live one hour webinar (followed by a Q+A), we’re going to expand on common themes we've heard in our classes like:
- How to get investors in the room (or on the Zoom)
- What investors really want to hear—and what turns them off
- The key elements to closing the deal
- How to win over investors and get the check
This isn't a full blown course. Just 5 game-changing tips for strategies we’ve used to raise real money — again and again.
Whether you're gearing up to pitch your first investor or want to sharpen your strategy for your next round, this webinar could unlock a new way you approach funding.
