My approach has helped filmmakers secure their broadcast then raise underwriting support from companies, foundations, and nonprofits.

This special webinar, held in partnership with The Film Collaborative, is both an introduction to the PBS system and an actionable outline of how you can reach a large national audience and raise significant funding for your film.

Here’s what’s covered:

  • Reaching a national PBS audience
  • Fundraising by finding sponsors of your broadcast
  • Crafting an effective pitch deck
