"Unlike most people who teach screen finance, Alan Harris has long experience of working at the coalface of film and TV funding. He can give you the tools you need to get your film funded and help you hit a rich seam of cash.”

Tim Adler, Screen Finance

Overview

A two-day course on the current climate of film finance to provide you with a comprehensive overview of how to finance feature films - from low budget features that break all the rules to multi-million pound, international co-productions.

What our previous participants have said:

"The most worthwhile financing course I've attended by far… and I've attended quite a few. Alan Harris was the ideal moderator." John Needham, Producer

"You come out of this course with two options. A total career change, or rise to the challenge!"

Brett Sullivan, Producer

"…Everyone should attend an event like this. Not only do you learn a great deal about the business of making a film, you also get to mingle with the very people who have the power to get you where you want to be. At the course I attended there were around 40 producers and fewer than 6 writers. Frankly, I like those odds."
