Hollywood feature $1m USD development package - 120% return in 1 year + 10% of completed pictures earnings

Resonance Pictures, LP under QuickSummer Eentertainment, LLC will acquire three literary properties and develop them with $1m USD to be ready for production. The Partnership will sell these developed properties to earn income to return the Limited Partners' original investment as 120% in one year, and provide all parties in the Partnership as a group a ten percent (10%) profits participation in the continuing earnings of these completed motion pictures. The potential return for this investment is predictable and higher then usual with a prompt traditional turnaround. As a standard of a successful $50m USD budget feature film is earning 1/5 of its gross from box office tickets (GBO) you can calculate the prospective income. After all expenses the long term return is estimated for the group of investors a total in mid to high seven digits. Ten (10) Interests are being offered at a price of hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) per Interest.

Our development patterns the major independent production houses as distribution studio undertakers in the system of presale L.O.C. backed bank financing with completion bond and US majors’ worldwide distribution. The Partnership's management team have independently been major participants in developing and producing more than forty successful pictures, including: FATHER OF THE BRIDE, THE ENGLISH PATIENT, JURASSIC PARK, THE RAINMAKER and PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN. This team will use their experience and relationships to acquire and develop the three motion pictures. We have several properties in mind, that we would like to develop, but we can not confirm that they will be, because distributors and talent will need to agree to their value as the stories that our motion pictures will tell have to be in high demand, and we need them to stand the test against the best that the industry has available. I will name a few possibilities: HENRY FORD, DALE CARNEGIE, THE MEGALITH - Quenby and the Prince - Slayer of Dragons, and UNICORN. The potential earnings are calculated by comparatives with LTR films, WILLOW, PRINCESS BRIDE, NARNIA, and HARRY POTTER. With the 3 films we are planning to earn $210m USD which is 50% less then comparative films earnings. We are also spending 50% less (non union, less stars, off-shore production).

Distribution Studio $406,2m USD

Development activities: (1) Acquisition of a potentially major studio quality literary property, (2) developing a shooting script from each literary property, (3) securing each picture's directing and principal acting talent, (4) blueprinting all elements associated with the production of the motion picture, (5) securing each motion picture's completion bond, (6) developing the marketing strategy and schedule for each motion picture and its related rights, (7) pre-selling certain of these rights according to the marketing plan and (8) engaging the production funding through bank lines of credit secured by each picture's pre-sales, in conjunction with each picture's completion bond and (9) sell each picture to a separate independent producing company, all of them controlled by the General Partner.

The projected sale of these pictures to the QSE, LLC owned independent producing companies, financed by entertainment industry bank, enforces the return and profit for the Limited Partner investors invested capital. Our available memorandum sets forth: (1) The Partnership's operating plan, (2) the proposed use and distribution of funds, (3) risks you should consider and understand, (4) the Limited Partnership Agreement and (5) subscription documentation.
