Andres Calderón – Budget and Financial Elements
Colombian. He has an Industrial Engineer degree from LSU (Louisiana State University) and an MBA from the Instituto de Empresa in Spain. He has 8 years of experience in the financial sector, with emphasis on Investment Banking.
In Colombia Andrés worked in fund management at Corredores Asociados, as local partner for Morgan Stanley Dean Witter in Bogotá and then in a Consulting Firm focused on restructuring of bankrupt firms. Then he moved to New York City to work for Global Crossing at the Corporate Development department and, before returning to Colombia, he worked for a Hedge Fund specialized in buy-outs of overdue accounts.
Since 2005 Andrés has been involved in the financial management of 6 film projects, managing budgets, negotiations and financial administration (including the fiscal benefits granted by the Colombia Film Law). The 6 films have been produced and distributed through different windows: Satanás, La Milagrosa, Perro Come Perro, Una de Espantos, Doctor Alemán, and De Paso.
Andrés has structured the sale of Film Investment Certificates for these 6 projects (granted by the Colombian Ministry of Culture) in the secondary market. His tasks have included management and optimization of returns for investors of these projects. He is today one of the top experts in film financing in Colombia.
Film investments
Anger (Rabia):
An impossible relationship played by two lovers condemned to live in the same bourgeois mansion. He’s hiding. She’s free. And both will have to surrender to the consequences of a crime… and the anger from which it emerged.
Christmas Night (Noche Buena):
A Colombian upper class family will go through its worst (and most ridiculous) economic and domestic crisis ever… precisely on Christmas Eve. The final eruption of the Truth will occur at midnight.
Undertow:
A love-ghost from the past will make Miguel accept his true essence… before society and before himself.
