PRESENTATION
Our intention at Art'mell is to support independent producers by helping them to attract investment for their productions, whilst ensuring that the whole process is not based simply upon a flight of fancy or impulsive risk-taking.
Our system is based upon a simple observation :
Investing in a film is, in effect, expressing the hope that this film will reach the end of the long road through the development and production process, and reap enough success in its various markets to ensure returns on the investment made at each stage. The more original and creative the film is, the greater the financial risks at stake for the investor during this process.
Art'mell works by allowing investors to back an ensemble of several projects rather than one individual production. In this way, risks are pooled and profits guaranteed. Even if some of the projects do not reach the end of the production process, the others either are or will be successful. This mechanism of being associated with the group of projects as a whole ensures that investors secure returns on their investment.
Art'mell backs projects for the cinema but also for television where, once the contracts have been signed with the channels, the risks associated with the development process are almost entirely eliminated.
The interest shown by both financial backers and producers who have expressed a desire to join us is clear proof of how sound and realistic our objectives are.
Art'mell's initiative has, therefore, earned its spurs and we are now continuing development and selecting both producers and financial backers as partners in order to draw up a business model.
Joining in with Art'mell's initiative means benefiting from our risk-pooling strategy. It gives numerous projects a chance without the risk of seeing an edifice crumble before you because it was resting on a single pillar.
