Jeffrey Taylor Announces His Latest Book on Film Finance

Independent moviemakers do not fail because they make bad movies; they fail because either they run out of money during the film production process or they fail to raise enough money to cover their costs to market their movie appropriately and effectively. In either case, the independent moviemaker fails to develop a long-term strategy that allows him to make movies as a life-long career.

Scottsdale, AZ, October 23, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Jeffrey Taylor, author, announces the pre-release of his new book, Film Finance For Beginners. Filled with entertaining stories about film finance, the book contains numerous information on the Evolution of the Major Studios, The History of Independent Film, The African Queen, The Production Code of 1930, Getting the Public to See Your Movie, Learn to Become a Producer, Prepare to Meet Your Investor, Managing Investor Attitudes, Basic Accounting Terms, Preparing Budgets, Hollywood Accounting, What Makes a Great Movie?, Isolating Investment Risk (LLCs), What Makes a Great Business Plan?, Financing Alternatives, Film Distribution, Film Tax Incentives and “The Internet Threat.”

Jeffrey Taylor said, “Over the years, I have met hundreds of writers, actors, directors, producers, distributors, photographers, makeup artists and financiers and would like to single out the rare few who have shared personal experiences with me so that I could write a better book; Lorri Allen, Don Baillargeon, David Balsiger, Jon Bonnell, Ted Chalmers, Chuck Foster, Steve Harrison, Chris Hazel, Jordana Hazel, David Kidder, Mary Ann Mercer, Larry Stouffer and Moira Taylor.”

Jeffrey Taylor is no stranger to the self-help book market. He has authored two textbooks for the equipment leasing industry ("Selling Leasing In A Tough Economy" and "The Future of Equipment Leasing"), an autobiography on his life as a recovering alcoholic ("A Gentleman Drunk/Un Caballero Borracho") which won him a screenplay finalist position at the Beverly Hills Film Festival in 2009 and "Going from W2 to 1099", which delivers an entertaining account and perspective on starting up a new business.
