You've developed a great project, found funding, cast it well, filmed your masterpiece and have made it through post-production! Congrats, that is a feat in itself, but the work doesn't stop here. It's time for the world to see your film!   In this final Filmmaker Series episode we'll break down the challenges of modern distribution in the indie market, and discuss how best to get your film seen.   This will not be the typical 'trust a distributor' conversation. We'll learn from experts about the good and bad of festivals, self-distribution, or finding someone to champion your film with you. Plan early and you'll be ready for what comes next, and make the most out of all your hard work getting your project made. From October 8, 2020.
