Greenlight Financing Course

A practical training program that takes a deep dive into the essential financial content you need to know to greenlight your projects.

Team

Our team consists primarily of financial producers, executive producers and production accountants with over 100 years of combined experience in the industry. We empower key creatives and producers, early career line producers, production managers and production accountants to really understand the tricks of the trade in financial packaging, investors and recoupment, budgeting and finance plans, financial cost reporting, navigating tax offsets requirements and audits.
