FinancingThe money that is earned by Sisyphus I LLC will be shared in the following manner. First, all outstanding debts from the production and promotion of Buffalo Bills Defunct will be paid. The remaining income will be shared by investors, Northwest Film Forum and Sisyphus Productions in the following manner.
Another option for giving financial support to this film is to make a tax deductible donation through the Northwest Film Forum. This will not entitle the donor to any part of the profits of the film, but does offer the benefit of a tax write off. Of course anyone who invests or otherwise gives money to this project will have their name in the credits, be invited to the premiere, get free tickets to any local showing of the film, be invited to any parties associated with the film, and is welcome to visit the set. Along with these benefits there will also be the unquantifiable satisfaction of playing an important part in the making of a great film. ConclusionBuffalo Bills Defunct will use the decreasing major-studio product and increasing demand to its advantage. Even without national distribution, it can turn a profit on the art house circuit alone (see Appendix 1). Sisyphus I LLC is in a good position to overcome the obstacles usually encountered by independent filmmakers. Both partners are well established in the Seattle film community and will work in collaboration with local experts. In addition, Buffalo Bills Defunct has been selected by the Northwest Film Forum for their Start-to-Finish program, which offers matching funds and free access to editing and other equipment, which will stretch the films budget even further. We are confident that Sisyphus I LLC can produce an exceptional independent film with a small budget and with Matt Wilkins and Eliza Fox as the production team.
