Festival Strategy Consulting

“Film festivals can help or harm your film. Mistakes can cripple its launch and limit its distribution, including applying to festivals too early, targeting the wrong festivals, not having the right festival team, and making bad distribution deals.  A customized distribution strategy enables filmmakers to make the most of festivals (the first avenue of distribution), choose the best distribution partners, and negotiate win-win deals.” -Indiewire

Any independent filmmaker with experience knows that finishing the production of a film is just the beginning. And in the same fate of many great finished scripts that never go into production, there are many great finished films that never go beyond the editing room or a few festival that bear it no fruit.

If you have a film that you are serious about and aim to have an excellent festival run, get the publicity it deserves and land a distribution deal that would ultimately take it to a wider audience, then let’s have a conversation.

Film Festival Strategy includes:

• – A through analysis of your film – what are your film’s strengths/ core-seller elements?
  
• – Development & prioritization of your goals – why go through a festival? film reviews, distribution, networking?
• – Creation of a strong PR Kit and other necessary materials
• – Publicity and media interaction
  
• – Finding or accepting an agent and reps
• – Distribution deals, rights management and more

We are very selective with whom we work, so if you have a stellar film that could benefit from this service, please get in touch.
