Working in film, it is always a rush when someone says they want to give you funding for a project. But when can that first money in actually hurt the rest of your fundraising efforts?

Depending on your project set up, and your business plan for your film, it isn't always good news that someone is running to write you a check, especially if they've barely talked to you about the project.

What are some immediate red flags to look out for when someone is coming to you ready to write a check with very little other context?

Join Koura in this episode where she dives into some things to watch out for when talking to investors who are jumping to invest in your film - because the goal is to fund the whole film, not get stuck at the starting line!
