Jeanette Milio – Film Financing Today: How to Finance a Film Between $5MM-$10MM

Some of the most profitable and most award winning films in recent years have been movies made for a budget between $5MM-$10MM. Feature films like The Big Sick, Moonlight, and the megahit Get Out were all made for less than $10MM but grossed 10 or even 20 times their initial investment.
