Description:
New School Studios is an indie production company, which makes short and feature films, documentaries and music video clips. NSS is the first of it's kind, established in Bulgaria - NSS is a company found by young talented indie filmmakers. Our biggest project so far is Bulgaria's first feature length action-comedy made entirely by young people with a budget of only $500, 1 camera, and more than 120 people involved. The premiere was on the 15 of April and received high media coverage, including national media interviews and reportage. The project has so far returned $3000 and there is a national tour of the film planned for September. We are currently looking for an angel investor in new equipment and start up capital, so that we can expand and complete our upcoming film projects at a high professional level. Bulgaria's movie industry has started to grow, both in popularity and profit, in the last couple of years after almost 20 years of absence, which makes the perfect timing to invest in films.
