Don’t miss SEE FEST’s next Business Conference!
One of the most useful elements of SEE FEST is its Business
Conference, headed last year by Honorary Chair Ron Yerxa (producer of Little Miss Sunshine and Cold Mountain, among others). The event
last May gave filmmakers great insights into:
-- How to access
and structure financing for international productions
-- How to develop Hollywood and European financing for co-productions
-- Local
governmental incentives for filmmakers
-- The role Hollywood-based East European expat filmmakers can
play in bridging the financial divide
-- What to expect
when producing overseas—including the use of local crews,
post-production
facilities, and legal/business practices
-- How to find
distribution, pique interest and “get the word out”
-- New
technologies and digital distribution—myths vs. realities of new
media and marketing for foreign language films in
the U.S. marketplace
Aren’t you sorry you missed this opportunity? Well, don’t do
it again! Mark your calendar now for early May 2012, when the next SEE FEST
Business Conference will happen.
