So I've either been making movies or trying to make movies since I was a kid.
I mean, yeah, a little kid.
And the hardest part will always be raising the money.
No matter how great of a script I write or how much of a cool project I come up with something.
At the end of the day, movie making is expensive, guys.
And you I find myself constantly either in meetings or on phone calls asking for money.
Even the studios aren't giving you money to go there.
Nobody's going, here's $15 million, go make a movie anymore.
That's just not the way it works.
I mean, if you've noticed, like, I mean, you watch the credits before a movie now, you know, it used to be that there'd be like one company that
like the studio like paramount loco now you'll notice there's usually like four or five companies and that's because those are the companies usually putting up the money which is why they get the right to put their logo so yeah i mean i laugh now because it's like it's just a never-ending scroll of company logos that are you know because they're each putting in a couple million dollars or a couple hundred thousand dollars so yeah getting financing for a film is an art form unto itself
So sometimes you just put money in and you hope something happens and then it doesn't.
So, yeah, just the way it works.
Well, you don't want the endless search for big money goals to affect your everyday life.
And that's why Ally Bank is crucial.
It's the bank that meets you where money and life connect.
