Abstract
This paper discusses the difficulties that Taiwan film industry is currently facing in terms of not able to connect to financial capitals due to the high risk nature of the industry. First this paper reviews past thesis that analyze the key factors that will affect box office especially in the Taiwan market, as well as studies on the difficulties faced. Then this paper looks for solution from other country’s film industry. A great example of independent production house from the U.S. provides ways to attract investors. After looking through past studies and experiences from other global market, a solution is then proposed: creating a film fund which can attract professional investors, and assemble Taiwanese film workers to form a production house that will handle all the movies invested by the film fund. Past data on box office and budget is gathered and organized to be inputted into a financial model in order to see if risk adjusted return can be increase while in the meantime volatility can be reduced.
