Distribution : Feature Film Slate by Reggie Cook

Feature Film Slate

I’ve gotten the ball rolling on a package to finance a feature film slate. Any thoughts on how I should approach distribution? Timing? Suggestions?

You'd approach distribution when the film is complete and ready to distribute.

Hi Reggie Cook - wishing you great success with your slate. I highly recommend this Stage 32 webinar on how to secure the best distribution deal for your film (and it happens to be on sale today :) - https://www.stage32.com/education/products/understanding-the-economics-o...

Don't do anything until you have secured financing, and set up things financially. When you're in pre-production, start contacting distributors, provide them information. During production you'll create EPK (electronic press kits) and provide to distributors to build interest. As production is wrapping up you can create the teaser trailer and send out. During post you'll follow up with a new trailer. Somewhere in all this you'll be fielding offers from distributors.
