Hi all,
My writing partner and I have recently shot our first shot film. We funded the whole production out of our own money. We managed to get a couple of known TV actors to star in the film. Once we got these names a production company wanted to get involved. They allowed us to use their insurance.
We are now working on the opening credits to the film and are a bit stuck. I’m guessing that the production company will get a “associated with” credit, but we are unsure what the first credit should be. We don’t have a distributor, and we don’t run a production company ourselves – as I said, it was just me and my writing partner who funded the film, assembled the cast and crew, sorted out the equipment, props (cars), lowloader etc. Does anyone have any advice, or has been through something similar? Is it just a case of us ‘creating’ a production company name to work under?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
