Established in 1989 as a consulting company for the acquisition of feature
films for all media, FILM FINDERS also serves the needs of producers seeking
buyers and development, production and acquisition executives and distributors
worldwide seeking product, co productions and financial partners.
By maintaining a large, frequently updated database of independent
English language and non English language films in all stages of development
through production which are available for acquisition and/ or coventures,
FILM FINDERS also provides important information on remake material and on
upcoming directorial and acting talent.
Distribution companies looking for product for U.S. and
international markets use FILM FINDERS' reports as a truly cost effective
way to free executive staff from tracking chores and give them time to travel
prepared, screen films, read scripts, nurture producer relationships and
conduct negotiations.
Corporate development and acquisitions departments
that need to track films are kept current, competitive and thus are positioned
to pick up the best films before the competition.
Producers, at no cost
and with little effort, keep prospective buyers apprised of their projects,
screenings and new developments and have direct contact with the universe
of acquisitions executives.
A computerized database maintained by FILM FINDERS tracks approximately
4,000 new titles annually in various stages of production. These include
independent features, as well as the top non-English language films, all
of which are available for distribution and/or co-production.
