When your film is “in the can” getting it to the consumer is the final step to making money and getting it seen by the world. To do this you can either self-distribute or get a distributor. If you are securing a distribution deal you need to know the basic release patterns, from a Saturation Release to a Non-Theatrical. If you are going to distributed it yourself you need to understand “sequencing” which maximizes the revenue from all the global markets from the theaters to the cable channels. Understanding the road to distribution is a very important step in the filmmaking process and without it your film will most likely sit on the shelf and collect dust. The Distribution Chart lists the complete road and detailed information on how to do it. The Front of the chart goes through each release pattern in detail and covers every sequence for self-distribution. The back of the chart is a full color coded description of these concepts in even more detail. This is must for any filmmaker who has a finished film and is ready to get it out there.
