What others are saying about the book:

IDA article July 2004 by Ray Zone
“Pitching your project to an investor is very important. “the film pitch is like the baseball pitch in that it is critical to the outcome of the game,” writes Dean. “Practice your pitch and your answers until your delivery is smooth and convincing.” It’s a good pitch if it’s entertaining, if the pitcher enjoys and believes it, and if it makes the project sound exciting and communicates how it will make a difference.”

"Carole Dean's book successfully bridges the gap between the vision of the project and the realities of the market for the serious filmmaker."
-Louise Levison, author of "Filmmakers and Financing: Business Plans for Independents"

"I must admit that I am very impressed with the information, tone, approach and philosophy. You are in inspiration. You have inspired me to focus more directly on the work I am doing - believe that there is indeed money out there to support me"
-Mark Travis, of Travis-Johntz Productions

"Carole Dean has years of experience both as a producer and a funder, and her new book is full of nuts-and-bolts information from both sides of the fence, told in a conversational and heart-felt manner. Of special interest to filmmakers will be the in-dept interviews with experts in the field, and an extensive appendix chock full of references. A great new addition to the filmmaker's lexicon."
-Morrie Warshawski, Consultant, and Author of Shaking the Money Tree

"All the great stuff in this book clearly comes from Carole's years in the US film business. But it's hugely appropriate that she came to New Zealand to actually write it. It's a country with a long history of small independent film-makers creating magic on tiny budgets. And not taking "no" for an answer. That's the road kiwi Peter Jackson travelled to realise his dream with "Lord of the Rings". Carole's book will give independents world-wide the courage and inspiration to realise theirs."
-Paul Davidson, documentary film-maker, Marlborough, New Zealand

"Carole Dean is well known in the motion picture industry for her innovations and creative genius. In her book, In The Art of Funding Your Film, she has created a superb bible that will serve the novice as well as the seasoned filmmaker. Carole has utilized her experience in the industry and her talent to create a masterpiece - a concise roadmap for financing a film which reads like a novel. This book is a major contribution and is bound to be the catalyst for valuable film production that the Public and scholars would otherwise miss."
-S. G. FASSOULIS
