FILM DEVELOPMENT FUND   A pre-production fund used to "attach" talent to a film.   Least Risk Fixed ROR +%   An investment made directly with IFR, Payout made by IFR, from Film Production Fund   The IFR Film Development Fund is an investment opportunity to fund the development of future movies.  Before a film is made, the director and actors are "attached" to develop the film's "package"... a process which facilitates actual film funding plus "prints & ads" and/or distribution"  Heres how it works:   Investor(s) deposit an amount which IFR determines will be required to develop its next feature film.  Let's use $100,000.   For the use of this money, IFR returns $100,000 plus 15% AT THE TIME THE FILM IS FULLY FUNDED... NOT AFTER IT IS COMPLETED, OR EVEN IF IT IS SUCCESSFUL.  This return is possible because the Fund is a line item in the production budget which is actualized upon full film funding.  Investor(s) may also garner a small percentage in the film's profits.

	FILM PRINTS & ADS   A post-production fund used to promote the film.   More Risk Fixed ROR + >%   A film specific investment made directly with IFR Payout  from movie box office receipts.   Once a film is made, it must be marketed to the public.  This is the function of "prints & ads."  It is also a function which may be assumed by  film distributors... the difference being in the percentage taken; with P&As the distributors risk and therefore "take" is lower.  Through which ever means the film is marketed, it must be effectively promoted to the target audience to get it into the theater.  And, this investment is sizable in order to garner the attention and desire of the theater-goers.  Further, as a film is release into a specific number of "screens," a determination may be made to expand the the number of screens which in turn will require more P&A.
