Re: [Frameworks] Self distribution situation
I think you're absolutely right, Francisco! I just found this list that a friend sent to me a couple of months ago, and I think it might be useful for others: http://www.hi-beam.net/org/showindex.html Best, Andrea 2015-02-04 16:21 GMT+00:00 Francisco Torres fjtorre...@gmail.com: so maybe you should concentrate on venues that show mostly experimental films, like micro cinemas and experimental screening series. do not be discouraged, think about the exposure that films like the ones made by craig baldwin, david lynch or guy maddin eventually found. 2015-02-03 18:53 GMT-04:00 Andrea Márquez lejana.c...@gmail.com: Dear Jessica, Thanks for taking the time to make these comments. I'm going to send you the complete version in a separate e-mail. Dear Francisco, Thanks for your response. I believe the intended audience would be people who like experimental films. Even if it's not experimental in the traditional sense or genre, there are several points of experimentation on it, especially around the narrative device. And I sent it to this list because I thought some people might like it, but I wasn't sure. I suppose that my concern about distribution is an issue that concerns to a lot of people who make films and try to show them somehow. Basically I don't have money to send the film to festivals. And I'm not saying that if I had that money the film would be necessarily screened. I don't know if it's good, if people will like it, if it achieves the festivals standars, the programming criterion, if it will have lucky, and so on. I do know there are some festivals that don't charge any entry fees, but with features I understand it's not an easy process. In addition this film has a lot of technical problems that make it still more breakable. We made it without any money, without any technical resource, and for all of us who have been envolved, there was a kind of ideological resistance working in this way. So to me it seems a bit hypocritical to pay hundreds of dollars in festivals entry fees. I hope this discussion be useful to think (again) this delicate topic of films distribution. Saludos!!
