I must confess that the information available on how to seek funding gets me lost in a vast ocean of data. I am planning to direct my first feature film, and since I'm a Malaysian, have decided to shoot it here in Malaysia. It's a low budget English speaking psychological horror film with Malaysian actors, barely crossing the USD 25K mark based on a story I wrote.
The script is ready, the cast is ready, however I came across a fair bit of red tape that it looks like it's going to be quite a task to get this movie made. I always thought that all one had to do to make a film, was to shoot it. And that is what I have been doing for the past 3 years, shooting short films and documentaries.
But, now that I have decided to get a feature film going, I have some hurdles to cross and I really need a Producer who is able to help me with this.
Yes, I am looking for a Producer / Production company who is prepared to fund this film as well as help me overcome the administrative barriers here in Malaysia. The subject matter is horror with a fair bit of mind bending twists along the way. I am keen to see this movie open in Europe and the USA first. I really appreciate it if someone can pass the word around to help me with this wonderful project.
Thank you.
Thank you for this feedback, Vitaly.
