I hope you’re having a great week! I promised another EFM/Berlin dispatch and from the emails that are coming in, I guess you guys like these. So I’m thrilled to hear that! Before I go into some final take aways though, let me give you a reminder that the Film Financing Essentials 50% off Flash […]
I hope you had a great week! After my Berlin dispatch from earlier in the week What’s Most In Demand Right Now?, I received several emails from those of you who are on the ground in Berlin and also some questions in regards to the Film Market Consulting promo, I announced (for upcoming markets Cannes and […]
Last week I had a couple really interesting calls with clients who are waiting to hear back from festivals before jumping into distribution. And then it occurred to me – they just announced SXSW line up…in a few weeks Tribeca will announce its line up….and then it’s pretty much wait until TIFF in Sept. for […]
We left off on Tuesday with a Sundance Dispatch discussing the topic of Who’s Promoting Your Release, which led to an interesting conversation in the comments section if you care to check it out. I know I painted a bit of a doom and gloom scenario there, so I wanted to counter that today and […]

I hope you’re having a great week! Before I get into things today I have two quick announcements: 1. Many of you are part of the FS Facebook Page but since FB is limiting interaction on business pages, I have started a public FB Group so we have a place to share news and have casual conversations […]
We left off talking about don’t rush into a deal with a sales agent for EFM, and touched briefly on the power of waiting for the right deal to come along. Well in the wake of that I was working with a client this week on negotiating a deal with a sales agent who she […]
I don’t think I’ve even said this yet to you all but Happy New Year! ;) I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday break and judging from activity in the FS Forums I can see everyone is off an running already for 2018. Fantastic! One thing I’ve been getting a lot of panic emails about […]
Just two days left in the year….how are you feeling? I did an exercise yesterday where I went through my 2017 calendar month by month and listed out all the highlights and lowlights from each month. You know what stood out the most? All the positive experiences I had at the events and festivals I […]
