Cash Requirements
We currently have no external sources of liquidity, such as arrangements with credit institutions or off-balance sheet arrangements that will have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition or immediate access to capital. We expect to require additional financing to fund our current operations for fiscal 2023. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms or at all.
If we are unable to raise the funds required to fund our operations, we will seek alternative financing through other means, such as borrowings from institutions or private individuals. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the capital we need for our operations from the sale of our securities. We have not located any sources for these funds and may not be able to do so in the future. We expect that we will seek additional financing in the future. However, we may not be able to obtain additional capital or generate sufficient revenues to fund our operations. If we are unsuccessful at raising sufficient funds, for whatever reason, to fund our operations, we may be forced to cease operations. If we fail to raise funds, we expect that we will be required to seek protection from creditors under applicable bankruptcy laws.

Critical Accounting Policies
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance
with
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheet, and expenses for the period then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include but are not limited to the fair value of common stock issued for services, the valuation of derivative liabilities, the valuation of stock-based compensation and the valuation of deferred tax assets.
Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as
the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. FASB ASC 820 requires disclosures about the fair value of all
financial instruments, whether or not recognized, for financial statement
purposes. Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments are based on
pertinent information available to the Company on
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities
in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and
liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted
prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by
observable market data.
Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity's own
assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in
pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, due from and to related parties, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

Film Production Costs
The Company capitalizes costs which were used in the production of films
according to ASC 926, Entertainment - Films. For films produced by the Company,
capitalized costs include all direct production and financing costs, capitalized
interest and production overhead. Production overhead includes the costs of
individuals or departments with exclusive or significant responsibility for the
production of films. Production overhead does not include general and
administrative expenses and marketing, selling and distribution costs.
Capitalization of interest costs should generally commence when a film is set
for production and end when a film is substantially complete and ready for
distribution. Filming the Movie was completed in
Pursuant to ASC 926-20-35, the Company will begin to amortize capitalized film cost when a film is released, and it begins to recognize revenue from the film. These costs for an individual film are amortized and participation costs (see below) are accrued to direct operating expenses in the proportion that current year's revenues bear to management's estimates of the ultimate revenue at the beginning of the current year expected to be recognized from the exploitation, exhibition or sale of such film. Ultimate revenue includes estimates over a period not to exceed ten years following the date of initial release of the motion picture.
Parties involved in the production of a film may be compensated in part by contingent payments based on the financial results of a film pursuant to contractual formulas (participations) and by contingent amounts due under provisions of collective bargaining agreements (residuals). Such parties are collectively referred to as participants, and such costs are collectively referred to as participation costs. Participations may be given to creative talent, such as actors or writers, or to entities from whom distribution rights are licensed. Participation costs are typically recognized evenly as the ultimate revenues are earned.

Table of Contents
Unamortized film costs are tested for impairment when there is an indication that the fair value of the film may be less than unamortized costs. Consistent with the rules for recognizing impairment of long-lived assets in ASC 926, the standard sets forth examples of events or changes in circumstances that indicate that the entity must assess whether the fair value of the film (whether it has been completed or is still in production) is less than the carrying amount of its unamortized film costs.
1. An adverse change in the expected performance of the film prior to its
release,
2. Actual costs substantially in excess of budgeted costs,
3. Substantial delays in completion or release schedules,
4. Changes in release plans, such as a reduction in the initial release
pattern,
5. Insufficient funding or resources to complete the film and to market it
effectively,
6. Actual performance subsequent to release fails to meet prerelease
expectations. (ASC 926-20-35-12)
Derivative Liabilities
The Company has certain financial instruments that are embedded derivatives associated with capital raises. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815-10 - Derivative and Hedging - Contract in Entity's Own Equity. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment, or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on debt extinguishment.
In
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718,
Share-Based Payment, which requires recognition in the financial statements of
the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of
equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to
perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting
period). The
The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date. The awards to consultants and other third parties are then revalued, or the total compensation is recalculated, based on the then current fair value, at each subsequent reporting date.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted and implemented on
Upon implementation of ASU 606, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps:
Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
Step 3: Determine the transaction price.
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.
Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
