I work in the real estate finance industry, so when my buddy asked me to help him compose a list of film funds, PE groups, investment banks, hedge funds, etc. I wasn't exactly sure what to tell him. He's a very talented guy with some amazing movie ideas and a pretty incredible background. He's looking for independent film financing. BUT, since this is WSO, I figured we could start a comprehensive list of film, media and entertainment financing groups.
Using the WSO search function and Google, this is the beginning of the list I've put together:
