FilmAngels
This is the best idea for film financing I've ever heard:
Art and commerce will converge tonight at the Silicon Valley Capital Club in San Jose for the first FilmAngels Meeting and Dinner. Five projects at various stages of development, including a Stephen King horror film being developed by Steve Wozniak, will be pitched to a roomful of accredited investors. Entry fee: a ``suggested donation'' of $150....
``Everybody's trying to figure out new ways to put independent filmmakers together with investors,'' said former film commissioner Joe O'Kane, who brought John Travolta in ``Mad City'' to San Jose. ``This is a novel, cost-effective way to make that happen. And I think it's a good one.''
