financing
For the most part, “Twelve” is being funded primarily by its directors. Keeping
with the “film co-op” idea, each of the participating filmmakers was responsible
for contributing an equal share of the production costs. That money will provide
a director with a suitable grip and lighting package, all necessary camera and
sound equipment, and other production supplies. In addition, some of the shared
financing will be used for submission costs involved with entering multiple film
festivals. Though this type of financing is presently adequate, the “Twelve”
producers would be open to talking with potential investors and plan to begin
fundraising to help with finishing costs.
