PANAMA FILMS New Film Releases
 

Ferd started 50 years ago with his wife Beverly in Houston Texas. Shooting oil fields. Then TV commercials.....then feature films.

Ferd and Beverly specialized in one type of film. Low budget. Why? Because the profit margin was higher and the risk of loosing was lower.

Writing, Producing, Directing and Cinematography… They did it all, and as their family grew, so did the crew. It was a family affair. With Ben, mainly working behind the camera and Tracy usually in front.

Producing films that always doubled their money. Until GatorBait. Gator Bait was when  everything came together. Made for $90,000 it grossed 15,000,000. Ferd said, “That was the movie that put us in business.”

With a nice library of films, Ferd and Beverly made a distribution deal with Paramount Home Video for the ancillary rights. It was a good deal for all. Paramount saw the profit in these smaller pictures and ask the Sebastian’s to make some for them. So Gator Bait II, American Angles and Running Cool was born.

Living now in Semi retirement, Ferd and Beverly are still keeping their hand in.. Ferd is Chairman of the Board of Panama Films and He and Beverly are consulting and overseeing Monster Films LLC film production. Headed by his oldest son, Ferd (Ben) Sebastian.
