Sales Strategy: Selling your Film Abroad (International Sales)
Nicolas Brigaud Robert Films Distribution
The international film industry is made up of literally hundreds of sales companies and distributors, which provide the ‘backbone and lungs’ of the industry – the cash and distribution channels it relies on for success. Competition is tough and you will need all your skills and ingenuity to ensure your film can benefit from this worldwide network.
This session is your ticket into the world behind the industry’s most prestigious festivals – because behind every Cannes or Berlinale, there is a market with a much larger and more significant impact than the festival itself – the market which conducts business transactions in the billions of dollars.
Learn from our experts as they SHARE their experience on how to discover, identify and pitch to buyers, how to negotiate the best deal for your project, when and how to invest, how to identify and capitalise on your markets, the various distribution channels, how to recoup your investment through sales, and how to successfully juggle the many hats you will have to wear to make your project a success.
