It's nearly impossible to arrange financing for an independent feature film if you don't have (m)any credits. To get financing, it helps to have a "proof of concept" that shows why an investor or company should give you money to execute your vision. It is also MUCH easier to finance a short film. But where do you begin?
Not every movie is told the same way. I thought I'd talk about five basic film structures, and give a few examples for each different structure. When you are thinking about how best to tell your story, you might consider trying one or two, or even all five of these methods.
