Course contents:

The film industry has been oversaturated with more and more films and more and more filmmakers. Finding an audience for your film and potential market for your film has never been more challenging. Such a situation requires filmmakers to think outside the box with long-term strategies using hybrid approaches of traditional and non-traditional platforms and, mainly, a great deal of hard work by filmmakers. Discuss ways to maximize your distribution for your film from the idea stage and raising finance up through the film?s release. Know-how on how to approach festivals, sales agents, distributors and make deals for Prague-based films and those shot elsewhere.
