A Real Conversation About Why Films Don’t Get Made
I sat down with Adrian Bol for an open conversation about the things filmmakers keep running into and rarely get straight answers on.
In this conversation, we answered real questions raised in the comments on LinkedIn about why projects stall, why financing never materialises, and where decisions quietly derail careers.
We talked about:
Why most projects never get financed
Concept over plot and why weak concepts kill projects early
Cast, bankability, and the realities of financing
Why over-packaging is a red flag, not a strength
Why waiting for money is usually an excuse
Adrian is currently in post-production on Breaking Cover, starring Scott Adkins, shot on 35mm film with Andrzej Sekula (Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs).
This was not a lecture or a pitch.
Just a direct conversation based on what filmmakers are actually struggling with.
