Hybrid Distribution, Pg. 10

Resources
Peter Broderick, distribution strategist.

Peter Broderick's distribution bulletins. Highly recommended. About four times a year, Broderick sends out a free distribution bulletin focusing on a new and useful distribution technique. You can subscribe to the bulletins and receive them automatically.

Michael Wiese Productions . Filmmaking books and seminars.

Nick Terry, filmmaker.

Tony Levelle, writer.

Good Dick, the film. The website for Good Dick is a beautiful example of what happens when you use a hybrid distribution strategy to guide the development of a film's website.

Lioness The website for Lioness is another good example of how a distribution strategy can guide the development of a film's website. The Lioness website also includes a good explanation of how the filmmakers identified and reached out to their film's core audiences.

Senior Prom
This film is a good example of an ultra-low budget film ($300) that used hybrid distribution techniques to earn back its expenses.

Kickstarter, a crowdfunding site.

IndieGoGo, a crowdfunding site.

Inspired by such available-light and low budget films like Robert Rodriguez's El Mariachi and Jon Jost's Frameup, filmmaker Tony Levelle set out on a mission to learn how to do the same. He had the good fortune to attend a seminar by Dorothy Fadiman who not only finished all the films she started and got every film into distribution, but kept them there! He eventually worked with Fadiman and his co-authored book - PRODUCING WITH PASSION: Making Films That Change the World - is the result of their collaboration to share these techniques with others. The quality of this book so impressed the publisher (MWP) that even before it was finished they signed Tony to solo author DIGITAL VIDEO SECRETS: What the Pros Know and The Manuals Don't Tell You. Tony exemplifies the qualities all filmmakers need to survive: passion, persistence and vision.
