Info Session: Distribution with FILMCO
—Published on 8th Feb, 2021.
For filmmakers, securing distribution for their films is a wonderful achievement that can help to further their projects.
Producers must think about their distribution plan and strategy in the early stages of their films. But in today’s world with the continuous birth of new technologies, they must also become lifelong learners concerning new and emerging distribution avenues.
The Filmmakers Collaborative of Trinidad & Tobago is pleased to host an one hour Info Session on distribution with FILMCO for filmmakers. In this interactive Facebook Live Info Session, presenter Mariel Brown, interim executive director of FILMCO, will share pertinent information on distribution options through FILMCO for filmmakers. Mariel will discuss the distribution process at FILMCO and welcome questions from our Facebook audience to help content creators have a clearer understanding of distribution with the Filmmakers Collaborative of Trinidad & Tobago.
