IT TAKES A VILLAGE - LET'S COLLABORATE!

NOT EVEN THE MAJORS GO IT ALONE!

Watch the credits at the end of any film, and you immediately realize: IT TAKES A VILLAGE!

IT STARTS WITH OBJECTIVELY GREAT IP THAT HAS COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL

If you're not an expert at vetting every line of dialogue and every action line of a screenplay (few are), and would like an INDEPENDENT assessment of a script AND its commercial potential. We can help! Hire us for one project or to provide coverage and an ECONOMIC POTENTIAL ANALYSIS on multiple projects. If you green-light a project for development, we can produce budgets, assess the project's potential for tax credits, and often deliver them prior to your shoot.

WE USE A PROVEN, MULTI-STEP ASSESSMENT PROCESS AND PROVIDE DETAILED NOTES

Green-lighting a script is a BUSINESS DECISION. We understand it starts with a great script. However, there's no way to overestimate the value of above-the-line talent to drive profits. Are the costs of these collaborators in the budget? What genre is it? Who wants it or needs it? Does a co-producing partner have a mandate you can help fill? How did similar films do when marketed to your audience? Do they make money?

All this drives the question of how much to pay for the IP and helps you decide whether to pay for it.

We'll do the research on ALL of this for you and provide an independent assessment to help you make an informed business decision—EXERCISE THE OPTION—or NOT?

Welcome to INdieSPIRE Film Producers!

JAMES PATRICK DILLON

Award-winning writer, director, producer and filmmaker.

President - INdieSPIRE, LLC

Buzz.

Rave reviews and critical acclaim.

Award-winning scripts and performances.

Eye-popping margins.

Smiles, laughter, tears, and a soaring ending!

These are a few of our favorite things.

They all start with a story.

James Patrick Dillon (nom de plume: Jamie Jules) was born in Gerritsen Beach, Brooklyn, and raised, in part, by his grandmother, Angel. Every day, after literally dragging “Jamie” to the Latin mass at the Roman Catholic Church of the Resurrection across the street from her brownstone, Angel took him to work with her.

Angel was a flashlight-bearing usher at the Graham Theater.

So, starting at age five, Jamie would go from pondering the terrifying implications of transubstantiation to rooting for Bond, James Bond, as the iconic spy battled beguiling villains like Goldfinger while taking time out to pillow femme fatales with peculiar (to a five-year-old) names like “Pussy Galore.”

It all made quite an impression, and perhaps as therapy, Jamie started writing his own stories.

His first book, illustrated by his half gypsy mother, Florence Antionette, was penned at age six. Jamie told the story of a frog named Hoppy, who somehow lost his way and wound up inside the local castle. Being green on a green carpet, the poor little web-footed wanderer immediately found himself dodging soles to survive.

The prince of that realm, the only person in the household able to speak frog, coaxed the lost amphibian from hiding and squishing right into the palm of his hand using only his words. In today’s screenwriting parlance, it was the lead character’s “save the cat” moment. Quite endearing.

The prince did not kiss Hoppy. Nor did the frog turn into a prince. However, truth be told, the plotline was considered during development. The young royal merely plopped Hoppy back into the castle moat, to which the frog said: “Ribbit-ribbit-ribbit.”

Which, of course. is frog for: Thank you very much.

Jamie’s passion for stories never waned. As an academic scholarship recipient, he earned a B.A. in Literature and Writing from Columbia University in the City of New York. He graduated with high highest honors. He then cut his teeth in the movie business as an intern and slush pile reader at up-and-coming production companies based at Tri-Beca Studios. Soon after, he built his own Independent Film Production Company, Fierce-i-Films, and began writing, shooting, and editing shorts, industrials, and commercials. He also founded a weekly newspaper, served as Chief of Staff at one of the largest county political party committees in the nation, and worked in real estate development (it’s a lot like film development!).

Today, Jamie heads up Indiespire, LLC, an Atlanta-based film company he co-founded with his wife, Julia, and partners Ed Hartwell and Vi Bui.

Since 2023, the company’s diverse IP offering has earned over 30 finalist awards at international festivals for A BLESSING—THE LIFE AND TIMES OF VIKTOR FRANKL, SWIMMING WITH SHARKS, TLC, AND THE HUNT FOR LEVIATHAN.

We invite you to be a part of the NEXT CHAPTER!
