How to Raise Funding: Dallas Morgan Raising Funding for a Film Project | Episode 33

In this episode, Hall T. Martin connects with Dallas Morgan, a filmmaker, and discusses the journey of producing 'Sightings,' an ultra-low-budget thriller released in 2017. The discussion explores how the filmmaker navigated its distribution through a small-label distributor, achieving a modest recoupment path and receiving positive reviews within niche markets. Hall and Dallas delve into the motivation to enter the distribution side of the film industry, aiming to enhance the standards set by lower-level distributors and maximize exposure for various titles, particularly low-budget films and series, on platforms with established relationships. Over the past four to five years, Dallas has curated a catalog of around 300 titles, engaging in multiple aspects of film rights acquisition and placement on emerging streaming services. Hall provides insights and advice on how to effectively create and finance new projects by leveraging previous learnings and established connections.
