THIS COURSE WILL EMPOWER YOU
It is taught by two distribution strategists with unparalleled experience supporting filmmakers across the country and around the world.
The focus will be on practical steps that filmmakers can take to enhance the distribution of their new films, previous films, and future films.
Each module will be devoted to a different topic, but the value of the entire course will be greater than the sum of the modules. We will provide an invaluable understanding of how to succeed in the New World of Distribution.
This is our “panel free” event since panels are one of the worst ways to convey information ever invented.
The experience will be genuinely interactive. Every session will include significant time for participants’ contributions and questions. Participants will form a virtual community where they can meet each other, share their knowledge and experience, and potentially work together.
