Self-Distribution Case Study: "Indie Game the Movie"

January 13, 2015

Check out the detail of the marketing and distribution strategy for one of the best/first independent films to successfully self-distribute in the new digital age.

Through 2017, I will be studying to get my masters degree at Goddard College where I am focusing my lens on feature film production, new media marketing, and direct-to-fan distribution. We are suddenly at a point in evolution where you, Joe Blow, Grandma, even your cat can create a piece of media/art/content, find and connect with fans/customers online, and become financially independent doing what you love. Death to the 9-5!

So for my thesis project, I will be producing, writing, and directing a feature film, as well as building a marketing/distribution company infrastructure to market and monetize the film. What's that going to look like? A lot of fundraising, investors, hiring, management, marketing, strategizing, public relations, web content creation, audience building, sales, touring, merchandising, and making money.
