Inside the Untold Journey of Creating a Hit Movie Far from Hollywood Lights with Adam Burke and Jud Nichols
Adam Burke
And we did raise maybe 10% of the budget just from friends and family and it was the same thing that Judd said. We were extremely honest with them and didn’t come into it as, this is an investment, you’re going to make your money back. And then some, it was more of, there’s a good chance you’re not going to get anything back other than we want you to be a part of this film and we will give you an executive producer credit. And if you give us X amount and anything below that is just, we’d love to have you out on set. We’ve got a scene with a bunch of extras. If you can make it to that, we’d love you to be there. We’d love it to be at the after party, the wrap party. So, it was more pitching them on the fun of being involved with the process of making the product. And I think that we both felt really good about that because we weren’t trying to sell anything other than what we knew we could accomplish, which was having a good time.
