Whenever I see any “how to” book or DVD I am skeptical. But really? In the case of indie film distribution—especially DIY indie film distribution? What do you have to lose, have a look. The Secrets To Distribution: Get Your Movie Distributed Now! is out on DVD. It purports to have all you producer and director types need to know to get distribution for your feature or documentary. I will dispense with hyperbole. The package is 9 DVDs with 18 hour of material and three work books with resources, case studies and distro contact lists. What have you got to lose? Especially if you don’t know the biz? Well, yes, you could lose whatever this costs but that is implied…I mean beyond THAT what do you have to lose? Ok…18 hours of your time but you would likely waste that on Facebook or down at the dog track right? If you subscribe to Smashcut (and I was unaware I did) you get a discount which is slightly less than $450….for the course. Read more at www.distribution.la/smashcut. And ask around about this. I am not endorsing this...just letting you know it exists. Bob and Nadya Gruen bought a portable video recorder in the early 1970s. That was pretty early to have one I guess but in itself is not remarkable. What is remarkable is the 40 hours of footage they shot of New York Dolls. This footage was turned into into the documentary All Dolled Up fo Lookin’ Fine On Television. Footage has been added and edited as well for this release. Footage includes videos from shows at Max’s Kansas City, Whiskey-A-Go-Go and a slew of others. There are also interviews with David Johansen and Johnny Thunders. Bob Gruen, in case you are unaware, is a celebrated rock photographer. For more info on the releas go HERE. |
