About
CASTALIDES – l.e., the Muses, who used to haunt the fountain of Castalia on Mt. Parnassus.
CASTALIDES PICTURES LIMITED is involved in the production of high quality feature films with a broad audience appeal. Castalides Pictures aims to produce mainstream broad appeal motion pictures from its inventory of viable scripts and treatments.
The quality and market appeal of the feature film will be maintained by selecting and producing mainstream broad appeal screenplays using one or two starring and/or co-starring box office draw talents and cameo appearances by equally well-known marketable celebrities as well as bankable directors. Castalides Pictures is associated with many experienced award winning talents in the field of film production all over the world, insuring a quality result of their feature films when utilizing their services.
The financial plan involves raising the budget for each project through passive equity, tax rebates, government subsidies and international pre-sales, as well as saving budgeted capital with the help of producer rebates, offering actors-, directors- and producer deferrals, finding less expensive to no-cost locations, low equipment cost, small production crews and low local crew cost, less transportation/travel expenses, low housing cost and substantial rebates and tax credits.
Castalides Pictures’ standard and goal is to complete and deliver genuine first class upbeat broad appeal feature film presentations at a low cost as compared to todays escalated and saturated market of ‘copy and paste filmmaking’.
