FAQ
What happens to my film if it doesn't do well in the box office?
A film that does poorly at the box-office could lead to many problems.
You might first decide to modify the way you market your movie.
Second, you may decide to rewrite the script.
Third, you may decide to add characters.
Fourth, you might decide that some characters should be removed
Fifth, you might choose to cut scenes.
Sixth, you might decide that the film wasn't worth making.
What is the difference in a distributor and a producer?
A producer creates the movie. The distributor distributes the movie. Distributors, theaters and other companies, such as Netflix, can be sold directly by producers. Distributors acquire movies from producers. They then sell them to theaters and cable channels or streaming services.
Distributors have to negotiate with theater owners over where their movies should play. This means that certain movies might be more expensive at some theaters than others. You should select a distributor that has multiple theaters if you want your movie seen as much as possible.
Why don’t more filmmakers use crowdfunding platforms like Indiegogo, Kickstarter, and others?
Crowdfunding platforms are fantastic because they allow you direct contact with potential investors.
Many filmmakers aren't qualified to ask money. They feel they need someone else who can vouch for them.
Because they are still in their infancy, they do not believe that anyone should invest.
Instead, they spend many months working on the project in hopes that someone will notice.
They realized that they hadn't prepared properly when they launched their campaign.
So instead of getting thousands of dollars, they end up with just a handful of donations.
What percentage of box office profits goes to marketing?
Marketing budgets account for approximately 20% to 40% of film budgets. Marketing is crucial to any film's success.
Marketing is the only way to make sure that your film is known. It is impossible to get people to pay for your film without knowing all about it.
How many theaters do I need to make back my investment?
It depends on how long you plan to run your theatrical release.
If your film is going to be run for less then two weeks, one theater will suffice.
Two theaters are required if your film will be shown for more than two weeks.
Why is it that so few independent films are ever released?
Indie filmmakers often assume that distributors will pick up their films.
Because they love the work, distributors will likely buy their films.
But this is rare. Distributors often benefit from independent filmmakers.
They employ tactics like delaying a movie's release until after awards season has ended.
Or they delay the release date of a low-budget film until after the summer blockbuster season has begun.
Distributors are also trying to keep films off the streets until audiences have already spent hundreds upon thousands of dollars on tickets or popcorn.
They don't wish to lose those profits.
