We are always looking for Investors to help fund our slate of films.

Our slate:

Lumino Films that has 3  feature films and 7 tv series

Entry level for investment starts at £5,000, for which you gain a percentage of potential profits. First investors in get 120% back, first out. This is for the first 20% of the film budget only.  Which means when the film sells you are paid first with that extra 20%.

However we are also looking for product placement so if you have something you would like to advertise that we can incorporate in our films. This starts at £1,000. Sponsoring the film allows if you follow certain criteria for you to claim this expense against tax - more details by enquiry.

In return for Investment we can offer:

1 A projected 20% return on your investment, but in some cases much higher - predicted by projected Professional Sales Estimates (rather like an estate agents valuation but for film rather than property)

2. Some profile actors, who will always be in our casts and help to sell the film.

3. We have incentives and can offer internships and assistant crew placement.

4. We can offer a small featured extra (has a line or two) subject to suitability.

5. We can offer invitations to red carpet events, festivals, wrap party, lunch with cast members, behind the scenes tours to other television and theatre events, mentoring by various professionals, exclusive theatre tickets, etc etc.

6.Tax incentives: Under the EIS scheme run by the UK government you may get 30 % allowance back on your investment against tax.  Your own Accountants can explain this to you.

This is a speculative investment so please seek professional financial advice.

Investing in films involves risks, including loss of capital, liquidity, lack of dividends and dilution, and it should be done only as part of a diversified portfolio. Film Investment is targeted  at investors who are sufficiently sophisticated to understand these risks and make their own investment decisions. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may be subject to change in future.

 

Please do contact us with your interest:  jsanger@luminofilms.co.uk and we will send a 20 plus page Investment Memorandum on either company, which will also specify things like cast, crew, locations returns, risks,that you can show your lawyer or accountant etc.

You can be sure that you have contributed to a film where we try our best to always cast UNKNOWN ACTORS, YOUNG STARTING OUT ACTORS, ETHNICALLY DIVERSE ACTORS and CREW including FEMALES as well as PROFILE ACTORS.

There are other ways to help, you can make a smaller donation to sponsor yourself or your child in a short film, with a specific role and genre decided between us. The average donation here would be £1,000, which does not have a monetary return but can include you and your child in networking opportunities, career progression, possible awards and Imdb credit.

You can donate to our crowdfunds which are usually for short films and development of trailers for tv series and feature films.
