Movie Marketing With ZERO Budget
How to Promote Your Movies & Your Filmmaker Career After You’ve Exhausted Your Film Budget
Gavin Michael Booth, BIFF 2022 Artist in Residence
You made your movie. You’ve spent your budget. Now you have to market your film to festivals, distributors and/or the public at large. This workshop is intended for film directors and producers looking for ways to grow an audience, learn from a filmmaker who has “been there done that” and found great success thinking outside of the box when it comes to movie marketing without a budget. If you’ve made or are about to make a movie, your film deserves to be seen. Take some of the mystery out of how to stand out in a crowded indie film marketplace.
The workshop is intended for all ages and will appeal to novices and experienced filmmakers alike. Reservations are not required but seating is on a first-come basis. This workshop is free and open to the public.
