FILM OFFERING DISCLOSURE CHECKLIST
	for
	PRIVATE PLACEMENT LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS AND LLCS

	This comprehensive checklist (based on Regulation D, Rule 505 disclosure guidelines)
is to be used in consultation with your securities attorney in developing information
to be disclosed in a private placement feature film limited partnership offering
or limited liability company offering.  Some of the information is required to be
disclosed by the federal and state securities laws.  Other items of information
on this checklist are traditionally disclosed because of the specific nature of
the film offering.  THE TIME REQUIRED TO PREPARE THE OFFERING MEMORANDUM IS A DIRECT
FUNCTION OF THE QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF INFORMATION PROVIDED AS WELL AS HOW OFTEN SUCH
INFORMATION CHANGES DURING THE COURSE OF THE MEMO'S PREPARATION.

The most efficient method for transforming the raw data compiled, pursuant to this checklist,
into a private placement offering memorandum is by starting with blank pages and
retyping each item number and then following with the requested information.  Again,
discuss each of these items with your attorney before beginning.  NOT ALL QUESTIONS
NEED BE ANSWERED TO START PREPARATION OF THE OFFERING MEMORANDUM--CALL AND DISCUSS FIRST.
