Structure
JuntoBox allowed actors, directors, producers, and writers to share ideas via a social media platform so they were able to collaborate with those without an agent or previous professional experience. Site users then voted on which films they thought JuntoBox should support, both as a financer and as a mentor. Those chosen still go through a vetting process, including traditional auditions for the chosen actors. The first films green-lighted by JuntoBox were Passenger, Sacrifice (2014), Anthem, and Sharon 1.2.3. (originally Sharon is Caring).
In 2013, JuntoBox partnered with the Slamdance Film Festival to increase the winnings of the festival's annual screenplay competition. Along with the usual $10,000 prize money, JuntoBox committed at least $50,000 towards production of the winning screenplay.
In 2014, JuntoBox Films launched a three-month long workshop series called the Feature Film Incubator that sought to bring screenplays into the development phase. This included "one-one-one meetings with industry professionals-including story analysts, casting directors and line producers." Those selected to participate in the program "receive[d] budgeting and distribution consulting" and other financial and mentorship resources. At least one of the films created during the Incubator was expected to be funded following the pitch session that marked the end of the program.
