FAQ

How will raising funds on this site really help get the film to audiences?
A: Many films are now made outside the major studio system, and finding their own audiences, particularly in the Documentary genre. However, in order to create the best opportunity for success, indie producers must (a) Raise funds independently; (b) Have an understanding of their core audience and (c) Know how to reach them by utilizing new technologies, led by the internet. With total control of the project, and this additional funding support, we will complete post-production, develop the ideal marketing program and distribute through a number of platforms, in an effort to reach widest audience.

The concept is directed primarily to friends, family and golf fans to support the project, with modest expectations for individual amounts. And we don’t expect something for nothing. We do offer goods in exchange. With this support, audiences will get to see the film!

Sounds like a lot of money. How do we know this is not a scam?

Our team has over 15 years in the film business and our credibility is supported by a number of testimonials on our production company website. (www.rightanglestudios.com). And we are working with Pay Pal for credit card donations, the most popular secure transaction company. You can also see clips on THE BACK NINE website, demonstrating footage in the can (www.thebacknine.com)

 


You are looking for $100,000. Is that enough to finish the movie and cover distribution costs?

Yes. Many independent films are made for much less and find an audience. But most underestimate the cost of post-production, from sound and music to animation effects. We want high production value relative to the cost of film. And you can never have too much money for marketing and publicity. Studios spend more than 30 million per movie in marketing. We plan to be creative with our website and use direct marketing concepts via the internet, combined with targeted traditional print and media.

 


I see some of the donation levels include our name in the film credits, DVD and/or on the website. What if we want to remain anonymous?

Not a problem. We simply ask that you let us know when you submit your donation, either in the pay pal form or by sending an email to info@rightanglestudios.com. We will honor your wishes.

 


How long with this take? And how can we track the process along the way?

Our goal is to finish the movie in coming weeks in order to play in Spring and Summer film festivals before the release of the film. We will update the tally with contributions by level and include weekly running totals. For more specific information on the film, or to participate in the community blogs, visit www.thebacknine.com.

 


Are there investment or sponsorship opportunities available for the project?

But of course. Investors can contact info@rightanglestudios.com to request an investment package. Sponsors will find a PDF Presentation on THE BACK NINE website. Simply click on the Show Menu button. Then click Sponsorship and you will see the Sponsorship Package link.
