Traditional Distribution

Traditional Distribution typically involves reaching out to a sales agent and discussing sales packages and ways for the film to receive individual attention. Finding the right sales agent can be very costly and time consuming. It is important to find one that is nearly as committed to your film as you are. Once finding a good sales agent, the next task is to be patient in find distributors interested in attracting attention to your film. The area of distribution is very important, examples are billboards, hotels, and cinemas. The area of distribution ties into the budget of the film makers and sponsors. I would utilize this process by making many phone calls looking for the right person to help with the distribution. Since my film deals with extreme sports, I would find a sales agent who has previous experience with films such as this one. This would allow some familiarity with the target audience and pitching ideas that could be significantly helpful to attracting eyes to "Follow Through'.
