PRODUCTS
|
|
Filmline LA produces independent
features that are market viable. In terms of the
industry, we call them "me too" films. In today's
ever-changing market, we look at our finished
product almost 8 months ahead of schedule. While a
major studio can take up to 1 _ years to release a
picture, we can come in 4 months prior to the
release of that major blockbuster and create a
solid product that can ride the coat tails of that
product.
In the wake of such strong independent films, we
are also producing features, which are talent
driven. Many major celebrities have "baby" projects
that they are searching the market for. We are more
than willing to let an actor stretch his acting
capabilities to come on board for a much, reduced
fee. This has become a common practice in the world
of independent filmmaking.
