Money & Momentum: From Film Financing to Real-World Frustrations - 11/3/2025: Vlog
Description
This week’s vlog is all about money — in filmmaking and in life.On the creative front, I share major updates on The Arbiters: our budget is finalized, the investor package is complete, and we’re now actively taking the project to investors. I’ve also been interviewing entertainment lawyers in preparation for closing deals and finding the right partner for ongoing production legal.Beyond financing, I dive into brand sponsorships — an unconventional idea for a 2D animated film, but one I truly believe can work. I also recap a Women in Animation event and share my excitement for the upcoming Animation World Summit.On a personal note, I talk about celebrating a housewarming party, my upcoming birthday, why therapy should challenge you, and a frustrating but revealing experience with my auto loan — a reminder that even when you do things right, finances can still test your patience.It’s a full-circle episode about building a creative life — the wins, the stress, and the messy reality of chasing big dreams with discipline and heart.🚀 Looking for a Creative Collaborator or Coach?Whether you need help launching a podcast, shaping your story, editing a video, or navigating the artist’s life—I’m here to help.✅ Work with me: https://philsvitek.com/collaborate/
