MEET YOUR MENTOR​

Timothy Fare-Matthews, founder of Financially-Free Filmmaker, Miller Tripods, Zacuto and Sony Cineline Ambassador, manages renowned Dubai-based production house First and Ten Productions, which has produced content for numerous global high-profile brands including McLaren, Will Smith and Red Bull.

Boldly, he relocated to Dubai with his business partners and worked tirelessly for a decade. Now, he leads a team of 15, generating millions in revenue annually and collaborating with top global brands and personalities.

Now, through FFF, he shares the tools, strategies, and sales frameworks that took him years to master, helping filmmakers pitch with confidence, win better clients, and scale a fulfilling production business. Tim remains highly hands-on in the Academy, guiding talented filmmakers and transforming them into confident, high-earning content entrepreneurs.
