These FAB faces can be reflected throughout a project; from its characters, to its creators, to its development teams, to its production crews and to its target audiences. **Who does the film practice work with?** From Northeast Florida, we work with independent producers, showrunners, documentary filmmakers and digital-first creators who have a project and need a finance advisor … someone to help shape it into something financeable, and then to make the introductions that move it forward. The work spans feature films, television series and limited series, documentaries and digital projects. **How do film production incentives fit into a financing plan?** US-based film production incentives … whether state, county or city programs … change over time and rarely fund a project on their own. Where an incentive may apply, we help producers understand how it fits alongside private financing rather than treating it as the plan. The plan is the story, the team and the audience; incentives are one line in the budget. ## Firm - Firm: Principled Deals & Assets (PDA Invest) - Founder: Ngozi Ada Chuku, Founder and Managing Partner - Location: 425 Town Plaza Avenue, Ponte Vedra, FL 32081 - Phone: 904.887.0231 - Email: info@pdainvest.com - Practices: Real estate · Institutional investment marketing · Film and television financing - Area served: St. Johns, Duval and Nassau counties; institutional and film work nationwide - Credentials: Florida Real Estate License SL3541407 · FINRA Series 7 and 63 Nothing in this content constitutes tax, legal, insurance or investment advice.
