How to submit your film project to Angel Studios

Angel Studios’ mission is to share stories that amplify light. If you have a story that you believe amplifies light, then follow the creator journey below.

Here is what to expect:

STEP 1 - PASS THE ANGEL GUILD

The Angel Guild is your first point of contact with Angel Studios. Angel Studios will share your torch (see more below) with a preselected group of viewers: the Angel Guild.

What is the Angel Guild?

The Angel Guild is made up of Angel investors and guild members. Angel Guild members decide which productions to green light, have access to exclusive content, and get to communicate with creators.

What is a Torch?

A torch is a prototype of your final production that is at least five minutes long. Angel Guild members will watch your torch and vote on their favorite projects. You must submit an eligible torch before receiving any consideration from the Angel Guild.

Why do you need a Torch?

1. The Torch proves you can assemble and lead a team to turn your vision into reality.

STEP 2 - BUILD YOUR MOVEMENT

The filming of the feeding of the 5,000 with The Chosen.

Building a movement is where together we begin to grow an audience for your production. Once your torch passes the Angel Guild it is watchable by our entire Angel audience. Angels then “Express Interest” in their favorite projects to help you predict how much funding you might receive.

You are also granted access to the Angel feed in the mobile app allowing you instant communication to your audience on Angel which will help you gather insights from your viewership.

In this stage, you are introduced to your team at Angel Studios, and we build a strategy to bring your production to the big screen. If we select your film or series as an Angel Original, our team will help you with goals, branding, and messaging while giving you full creative control of your production.

STEP 3 - CROWDFUNDING

Angel Studios works with Angel Funding to help creators raise capital to fund their production. Go to invest.angel.com to learn more about crowdfunding with Angel Funding.

You can crowdfund for production or for P&A (print and advertising) if your film is already finished.

STEP 4 - PRODUCTION

This is the where creators do what they do best. Angel Studios is mostly hands off in this stage, and we allow you to bring your vision to life. We give full creative control to you during production and are happy to provide any additional resources if needed.

During production, the Angel audience continues to remain accessible to you. Keep your fans up to date and grow your audience by posting regularly in the feed.
