‍

In the opening session of the Evil Dead BURN - Industry Leader Masterclass Series, entertainment lawyer Sarah Caughey joins producer Rob Tapert to unpack the often unseen work required to bring film finance together.

‍

Sarah specialises in the “black arts” of structuring the money behind a movie, and will explain the key documentation, legal frameworks and financial requirements needed to get a project bank-ready. After all, it takes money to make a movie, and this session looks at what needs to be in place before that money can become available.

‍

Using Evil Dead BURN as a practical reference point, this masterclass will offer insight into how producers, lawyers, financiers and banks work together to move a film from ambition to production reality.

‍

A valuable session for producers, production teams, crew and emerging filmmakers wanting to better understand the financial foundations that sit behind getting a film made.
