Happy 4th everyone!! Quick question: From the perspective of professionals in film sales and distribution, how valuable would it be for them to have immediate access to high-quality key art and pre-prepared marketing deliverables for titles, and to what extent would this significantly ease their workflow? If these are not readily available, what could possibly be part of the obstacles? All comments are highly valuable because I am trying to really understand this issue. Thanks, guys!
Happy 4th, Albertina Gohoho! Hope you get answers to your questions.

They, the sales rep or distributor, will create a marketing plan that's best for your project. They announce it in waves. Movie being shot, who's in it. Then they'll ask for footage to make a trailer during production, so another announcement. Another, longer, better trailer when the movie wraps, and then they'll push it. Their job is to build interest and sales with all this. There's nothing wrong with providing art and marketing materials. Let's mention (for clarity) to also provide the synopsis, cast, cast bios, director, producer info, bios as well. They may or may not use your art or marketing materials.

Lindbergh E Hollingsworth That's interesting. So would you say, it's better for them to have more than just one key art or marketing material for the sake of better marketing? I mean if in the end they may or may not use one particular artwork. Thank you for that insight.

If you have cast attached including images of them in the artwork is helpful.
