Most of this book is geared at documentary funding, but some of the ideas can be adapted for narrative fiction film financing as well. I do wish the section on tax incentives and rebates was a little more thorough however, as that is one of the biggest benefits currently available to filmmakers.

It's a little heavy on the inspirational for my taste, but this is an okay guide if you are beginning to learn about film funding.

The book is all right. The author seems to be a very experienced lady in film fund raising, yet something is missing...
