PODCAST: Making & Selling An Indie Feature Film For $2 Million With Freaks Director Zach Lipovsky

This week my guest is the co-director of the theatrically released feature film Freaks, which stars Emile Hirsch and Bruce Dern. Zach and his partner Adam were able to successfully raise financing for their script, attach A-list actors, land a premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival and sell their movie for $2,000,000.

Over the course of this episode, we walk through the A to Z of this process – from the beginning stages of raising private equity to production, film festivals, and theatrical distribution. Zach shares an incredible amount of tactical advice on the business side of things, which can surely serve as a blueprint for other filmmakers with big screen aspirations. 

This is Episode 83: Making & Selling An Indie Feature Film For $2 Million With Freaks Director Zach Lipovsky
