How It Works
Two Tracks

Know what you're buying.

Every offering on Planet Backlot falls into one of two tracks. They share the same REEL/CAST machinery — but the product, the timing, and the risk profile are different.

Every film card on the slate is tagged NEW or CATALOG in the top-left corner so you always know which track you're looking at.

How a film share works

Buy. Hold. Earn across every window.

A share is a participation in a film's revenue waterfall. When the film earns, you earn — pro rata, automatically, through every distribution channel.

01
Buy a stake

From $25. Pledges escrow until the film hits its funding goal. All-or-nothing — miss the goal, every dollar returns.

02
Film gets made

Capital deploys into production or rights acquisition. You receive regular producer updates and milestone reports.

03
Revenue flows back

Theatrical, streaming, FAST, physical media, licensing, and remake options all feed the waterfall. Distributions hit your account quarterly.

  1. 1

    Participants — investors first
    You recoup your principal before profit splits begin.
  4. 4
    Profit split
    Net profits split between investors, producers, talent per the deal.
  5. 5
    Ongoing tail revenue
    Library life — licensing, remakes, sequels.

The tax angle
Section 181, state incentives, K-1 reporting.

Qualifying productions may pass through immediate expense deductions under Section 181. Participants receive a K-1 each year. State-level production credits can further shape after-tax economics.

Tax incentives explained →
Risk disclosure
Film is high-risk. Many lose money.

Participation in film is speculative, illiquid, and can result in total loss of capital. Projections are not promises. Past performance of similar films does not predict future results. Read each film's full offering documents before participating.
