Today I am joined by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Roger Nygard, who you might know from films like Trekkies, Suckers, and The Truth About Marriage.

Throughout our discussion, we unpack Roger’s winning formula for making and selling documentary films. Topics covered include:
  • Why $100,000 is the magic number as a starting point for your budget
  • The realities of recouping your costs, and what to expect from sales
  • How to generate interest from multiple buyers to up your minimum guarantee
  • The importance of theme from a creative and business perspective
  • Applying traditional storytelling principles to challenging topics
  • Best practices for getting started making your next doc
