LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - March 29, 2010) - Luthier Society, Inc. -- There is much talk among independent Producers & Directors that obtaining viable film distribution these days is nearly impossible. According to Producer & Distribution Expert Jerome Courshon, the major problem is not the perceived lack of options for Filmmakers, but their lack of knowledge and insider information to achieve results.
To remedy this problem, Centaur Productions has announced the release of "THE SECRETS TO DISTRIBUTION: Get Your Movie Distributed Now!" This Program -- based on Courshon's acclaimed Master Class for movie Producers & Directors -- features himself and special guests for 3 Days as they cover every aspect of getting films distributed.
To be released 2nd quarter, 2010, the Program is a 9-DVD Boxed Set of 18 hours of instruction, with resources and unique distributor lists. Courshon's Program addresses all the questions and challenges Filmmakers face today -- and provides proven strategies and solutions. Some of the topics addressed:
- I finished my movie... Now what?
- I got into Sundance but didn't get a deal... What now?
- I didn't get into Sundance and no one wants my movie... How can I turn this around?
- Everyone is buzzing about DIY... Is success possible this way?
- Everyone is talking about Internet & Digital Downloading options, but Morgan Spurlock said you might only get your phone bill paid this route. What is the truth here?
- I want a traditional distribution deal... How do I attain this?
- I don't want to be screwed by distributors... How do I protect myself?
Jerome Courshon (GOD, SEX & APPLE PIE; LIFE WITH FIONA) learned the 'game' of distribution as a Producer in the trenches. From his film festival journeys to self-releasing his first movie into theaters to securing distribution with Warner Brothers, Courshon has faced innumerable obstacles. And it's this hands-on "what works, what doesn't work" approach that he is able to share with fellow filmmakers.
In conjunction with the release of the Program, Courshon will be making appearances in ten cities across North America to present a half-day version of his Master Class, free of charge to local film organizations and universities. Attendees at each tour stop will also be entered to win a free consultation for their film project as well as one of the DVD Boxed Sets.
