Faith Film Funding

Are You Seeking Funding For Your Faith-Based Film?

Do you have a completed film, or one that is nearing completion, and currently seeking P&A funding to provide the advertising exposure necessary for successful distribution?

Whether you are supporting a theatrical release, VOD platform, or retail DVD distribution, creating awareness of your film is a key element in the success of the distribution plan.

Faith Film Funding is dedicated to expanding the delivery of Faith-Based and Core Family Values films into mainstream distribution. They provide private funding access to fuel the advertising side of your P & A budget that delivers structured, component-based funding or access to cover your entire media plan. Funding can be committed early in the process with a letter of commitment, which in many cases, will allow you to best negotiate your completion funding, distribution agreements and foreign market pre-sales. For projects that meet the investment criteria, funding is traditionally available for 50% - 70% of the A side of the P&A equation. This provides significant leverage for a producer or distributor seeking funding from $100,000 up to $10 million or more.
