The EP Division at Buffalo 8 is dedicated to shepherding film and television projects from the development stage into production. Many of these projects are not ready for financial investment consideration from B8's sister company, BondIt Media Capital (an institutional, senior secured debt financier), and it's the responsibility of the EP Team to provide creative notes on scripts, create line item budgets, shooting schedules, pitch decks, and finance plans, assist in cast guidance and packaging, and shopping the project directly to distributors, sales agents, television networks, co-production partners, and the general market in order to secure a path to distribution prior to start of principal. Ultimately, we want the projects to reach a stage where investors, including institutional capital firms, can properly consider funding and/or greenlighting the productions that this division Executive Produces.
The Head of the Executive Producer Division oversees a staff of coordinators who handle the bulk of deliverable creation (budgets, schedules, models, and pitch decks) and a degree of client relationship management. Managerial responsibilities reserved for the leader of the division include:
• Project Packaging & Shopping, including client relationship management
• Leading the EP division through scheduling of pitches with buyers, agents, and key partners
• Organizing the schedule and duties of any coordinators or assistants operating within the division
• Updating and maintaining the division's operating systems
• Overseeing sales, production, casting, and distribution-related discussions on behalf of clients
• Maintain oversight of any active productions through either a Producer or Executive Producer role
• Graduating projects in development at Buffalo 8 to the investment stage at BondIt Media Capital
• Create scheduling, budgeting, modeling, and pitch decks on an as-needed basis
• Daily email and phone correspondence with active and potential clients (creative feedback & strategy)
• Plan any of Buffalo 8's physical productions through budget and/or schedule creation and pre-production
• Oversee the pre-production and/or principal photography of any active Buffalo 8 productions
• Serving as a liaison between Buffalo 8's development slate and BondIt Media Capital's packaging team
The position is an exceptional opportunity for formerly trained producers, UPMs, or executive producers familiar with current market trends, production capabilities, logistics, and how to successfully greenlight independent film and television series. The synergies available through BondIt Media Capital, Buffalo 8, and ABS Payroll (the BondIt Family of Companies) provides this candidate with a platform to produce, finance, and greenlight content while working with top level executives in the Companies' industry rolodex.
Requirements
• Proficiency in MMB, MMS, Canva, Google Slides, Adobe, and Slack
• Pitch deck building experience
• Physical production experience as a producer, production manager, line producer, and/or AD with budgets ranging from sub $1M-10M and supporting credits on IMDb
• Guild contract knowledge for all budget tiers
• Production company, sales company, distribution company, and talent agency relationships
• Working knowledge and understanding of development, casting, pre-production, production, and post-process
Remote working conditions are considered but not required.
