The Berlin Beat Dailies N°4
DO NOT MISS A BIT from BERLINALE AND EFM 2024
Founded in February 2020 by Audigent alum Jon Gosier, FilmHedge is a financial technology company that has spent the first few years of its life providing data analysis, underwriting, and risk-rating services that enable financiers to make better decisions as it relates to Film/TV financing and deal structuring. To date the company has primarily focused on productions in budgets in the USD$5 to $35 million-range, structuring loans up to $20M that could be financed internally or through partners using its data.
In late-2022 the company closed on two credit partnerships totalling $100M. This back-leverage from investment banks and the company's other committed capital has allowed the company to lock in exclusive relationships with select producers working on forthcoming feature films, scripted series, and animated features.
