There is no evidence as too say who funded the film, but it would not have cost much to produce. If the film was actually a documentary, the cost would have been plane tickets and car rental/petrol, because if they are actually already film producers they would have already have had the equipment too make the film.

The theory of 'We-Think' is relevant to this film, as the theory talks about how the internet has changed how we can exchange information about the things that we create. The film starts off with us believing Abbey exchanging her paintings with Nev.
The theory of performality is relevant to this film as the theory states that identity is not fixed and it is constantly changing. This is relevant to the film, as Angela has many identitys on facebook, and goes on too show these in real life. The performativity theory suggests our identity changes dependent on who we with which is shown in Catfish as Angela's husband and children are oblivious to her differnet identitys.
