Rizzotti will head up the new company.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Crossroads Lending&rsquo;s platform is uniquely positioned in the entertainment industry for its ability to streamline and expedite funding opportunities, for both filmmakers and lenders. Blue Fox Financing is a natural extension of Blue Fox Entertainment&#8217;s distribution and sales business but is a standalone company operated independently by Patrick,&rdquo; said Blue Fox founder James Huntsman.<\/p>\n<p>Rizzotti added, &ldquo;Several years ago, while attempting to cashflow a sizeable streaming licensing fee, I realized there were only limited and expensive options for securing a lender, even for low risk collateral. As a result, I created a marketplace which connected filmmakers to lenders, whereby there would be one centralized platform to shop your debt financing on films. This is commonplace in other industries like mortgage, business loans and insurance. As a film producer, I&rsquo;m always looking for this type of financing on my own projects and know firsthand how useful this marketplace will be to filmmakers who will now be able to instantly go out to a wide array of lenders and knowing they are getting the best rates.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<h2>Must Read Stories<\/h2>\n<h3>Internal Pixar Letter Disputes Disney&#8217;s Support Of LGBT+ Workers &#038; Questions Commitment<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Disney-Pixar2.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>Netflix Sets Late-Spring Premiere Date For Sixth &#038; Final Season Of Gangster Drama<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Peaky-BLinders-Season-6.webp?w=100&#038;h=100&#038;crop=1\" alt=\"\"><\/p>\n<h3>Ramy Youssef Animated Comedy Series Gets Two-Season Order At Amazon Prime Video<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Ramy-Youssef-By-Mindy-Tucker1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3>&#8216;Dune&#8217;, &#8216;Cruella&#8217; &#038; &#8216;Coming 2 America&#8217; Win At Costume Designers Guild Awards: Full List<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Dune-Cruella-Coming-2-America.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h2>Read More About:<\/h2>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/deadline.com\/2022\/03\/blue-fox-entertainment-blue-fox-financing-acquisition-digital-marketplace-crossroad-lending-1234975131\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sales and distribution outfit Blue Fox Entertainment is launching a digital lending platform dedicated to film financing.
