Asheville Filmmaker Katie Damien blog: The Katie Chronicles: Broadcast
http://katiechronicles.blogspot.com/2015/04/broadcast.html
Tuesday, April 14, 2015. Because I had a documentary film. It made sense to broadcast it over the air for free on TV (I should say free for anyone to view, not free for me to play it. Buying air time. Was actually pretty expensive.). This might not make sense for most projects, but I’ll tell you why I did it. And I wanted to have a chance to enter it. I should hear if it's nominated in May. Keep your fingers crossed. In order to have it broadcast, it had to be closed captioned. After having done the work...

Asheville Filmmaker Katie Damien blog: The Katie Chronicles: Film Festivals
http://katiechronicles.blogspot.com/2015/03/film-festivals.html
Tuesday, March 10, 2015. Feature films fees average about $50 per entry. Then if you make it in, you want to be able to attend and network. That can cost you $650 to$1650 per person per weekend (my breakdown at the bottom.) A regional festival within driving distance is really the only way you can do it on the cheap. Y. Ou have to make a very well researched list and budget for all that. Screened at 9 festivals. One of which was an amazing film tour) and won 2 awards. The cost was high though. If you rea...

Asheville Filmmaker Katie Damien blog: The Katie Chronicles: How to Distribute an Independent Film in 8 Steps
http://katiechronicles.blogspot.com/2015/06/how-to-distribute-independent-film-in-8.html
Monday, June 01, 2015. How to Distribute an Independent Film in 8 Steps. Self-distribution used to be a sad term for people who made movies so bad no one wanted to pay money to see them. Today it’s not shunned the way it used to be, in fact there’s great potential for the artist making the movie to cut out the middle man and go straight to audience members. Most artists make terrible businessmen and vice versa. Most filmmakers study shot composition and acting. We’re storytellers not story sellers. With ...

Asheville Filmmaker Katie Damien blog: The Katie Chronicles: My Toxic Backyard on TV
http://katiechronicles.blogspot.com/2014/12/my-toxic-backyard-on-tv.html
Monday, December 29, 2014. My Toxic Backyard on TV. Finally had it's broadcast debut. It aired on the local CW channel here in Asheville at 5:30am on a Sunday morning (because that's what I could afford.) I ended up buying air time to have it broadcast and with Diamond Brand as an associated sponsor that really helped defray some of the cost. There must be some selection of shots, some choices on what is presented and once that happens, no matter how objective the author of that content is, you are prese...

Asheville Filmmaker Katie Damien blog: The Katie Chronicles: Marketing
http://katiechronicles.blogspot.com/2015/03/marketing.html
Monday, March 30, 2015. You have to spend money to make money right? Sadly, that’s true especially if you see your time as having a monetary value (and you should.). If you’re like me, you’re working a day job to pay the bills and making your movies on the side with the dream that you’ll be able to one day leave all that 9 to 5 madness behind and just make movies for a living. But until that day comes, remember that just because it’s called free time, that doesn’t mean it comes without a price. Getting r...

Asheville Filmmaker Katie Damien blog: The Katie Chronicles: Limited Theatrical Release
http://katiechronicles.blogspot.com/2015/04/limited-theatrical-release.html
Wednesday, April 08, 2015. Having a theatrical release seems really lofty, but it’s totally doable. First, find a small art house movie theater and see if you can get them to give you a screening, maybe at an odd time, maybe for one time only, but see if they’ll split the ticket revenue with you. Usually the theater keeps 60% of ticket sales and the distributor (in this case that’s you) gets 40%. You are responsible for getting people to buy tickets, not them. Distributors buy airtime and ad space. You m...
