What we're looking for from Ready, Steady, Pitch!
Film Mode focuses on commercially driven, English-language feature films. We represent projects at all stages of the filmmaking process. For projects that are at earlier stages, we often come on as Executive Producer, helping filmmakers secure financing through presales and providing creative input (script, cast, budget) that can help create bigger sales opportunities. We typically look for commercial materials that have the potential for attracting a wide audience, such as action, thriller and high concept genre films. We also like stories with universal appeals, such as romantic comedies and films based on existing IP. In addition to the commerciality of the materials, cast usually drives the sales value of a package. Because of that, we like working with producers who have existing talent relationships or have experience attaching big name talent. We’ve had success with Australian films, and are looking forward to meeting more Australian filmmakers!
