Indie Film Coaching

Indie Film Coaching

Now that your film is fin­ished, what are the next impor­tant steps you should be tak­ing? Do you know how you’re going to get your film onto the sil­ver screen and/or into the hands of the home video-buying public?

Some of the ques­tions you may be ask­ing your­self are … How do I get a the­atri­cal and/or direct-to-video dis­tri­b­u­tion deal?  Do I need an agent, attor­ney, or man­ager?  Should I seek out a producer’s or sales rep?  What film mar­kets should I attend?  What film fes­ti­vals should I apply to?  What kind of “pack­age” do I need? How do I get my film into the hands of acqui­si­tions exec­u­tives?  What strate­gies can I employ to increase my chances for suc­cess?

Top­ics I’ll cover in this Indie Film Coach­ing Pro­gram include:

  • The deliv­er­ables which will be required of you in order to sat­isfy your con­trac­tual oblig­a­tions with a dis­trib­u­tor or sales reps
  • Who you should hire to help you mes­sage, mar­ket, and sell your film
  • How to find the best dis­trib­u­tors for your film and how to gar­ner their interest
  • How to find and work with a producer’s rep or sales agent
  • What you’ll need as part of your pre­sen­ta­tion packet
  • How much you can expect to spend to sell your film
  • What film and TV mar­kets you should attend immediately
  • Devel­op­ing a strat­egy for attend­ing film markets
  • Which film fes­ti­vals you should apply to
  • How to use film fes­ti­vals to sell your DVD and build a following
  • Using social net­work­ing (Face­book, Twit­ter, YouTube) to cre­ate vis­i­bil­ity and sell your film
  • Cre­at­ing a press kit and build­ing buzz
  • and much, much more!

Most impor­tantly, you’ll walk away with a no-nonsense and do-able strat­egy for your film’s mar­ket­ing, pro­mo­tion, net­work­ing, dis­tri­b­u­tion, and long term career goals.

If you’re look­ing to get your com­pleted film off the ground in the indie film mar­ket­place, I will help you map out a strat­egy for your film’s mar­ket­ing, pro­mo­tion, and dis­tri­b­u­tion strat­egy, as well as your long term career goals.

I will watch your film, offer an artis­tic and mar­ket analy­sis and help you develop a plan to mar­ket and dis­trib­ute it.  Draw­ing on my exten­sive net­work and expe­ri­ence in the film indus­try, I will advise you on the var­i­ous options avail­able for your film from pub­lic rela­tions, mar­ket­ing and online strat­egy to sales and distribution.

This pro­gram includes:

  • A detailed, writ­ten review and analy­sis of your film.
  • 90 min­utes of webcam/phone con­sul­ta­tion to dis­cuss the notes and/or to answer any ques­tions you may have after read­ing the review.
  • Two half-hour follow-up calls.
  • UNLIMITED email sup­port for 30 days.

Fee: $1500
