We believe that film and television are great mediums for entertainment, and education, while also having the potential to be financially profitable investments.
Here are some examples of successful films that we are looking to for influence on projects we would like to invest in.
Grand Canyon: The Hidden Secrets – A short documentary on the Grand Canyon that is one of the most commercially successful documentaries of all time. The film has grossed more than $52 million, and still played today despite being released in 1984. View showings here.
Fahrenheit 9/11 – This film, by Michael Moore, was able to tackle current events at the time with a bold voice that resonated with audiences. The film grossed over $200 million on a budget of $6 million. We believe it has been too long since the world has heard a voice like this, and the time is now to invest.
Seinfeld – This fun and lighthearted sitcom written by and staring co-creator Jerry Seinfeld has formed a lasting bond with audiences and has generated over $1 billion in syndication revenue since its original run ended in 1998.
There’s also the possibility of creating content that involves some of the other areas that we engage with on the real estate side. Examples of content like this include shows like Million Dollar Listing Listing Los Angeles on Bravo, and Zillow Gone Wild on HGTV.
