I have come across several statements such as: a single person cannot raise money on their own (you need to be in a team of at least 2 people), it is not worth it because there is pressure on you, etc.

• What is your experience with raising money?

• What did it give you, and who did you raise it from?

• What do you think helped you to a large extent to get the raise?

I've been making short films for as long as I can remember. 

My first short was back in middle school, where my brother and I pretended we were in Star Wars, dueling with dowel rod lightsabers. By the time I met my co-founders, Spencer and Charlie, in college, my storytelling had (I hope) evolved well past my VFX-obsessed origin story.

We met on the set of a feel-good student short I directed last fall. But this wasn t backyard filmmaking anymore. We quickly got stuck in a hellish landscape of spreadsheets. Nobody s availability lined up, everyone was overwhelmed, and it took forever to finish the film.
