The second session will focus on how filmmakers can navigate the changing market of distribution, how to self-start making a path in the distribution world, how to fund your work, finding your niche, branding and social media. Please come prepared with questions and expect an opportunity to network and informally pitch your films to companies in the last hour of the program! (*bring business cards)
