The Truth of Independent Film Distribution Figures and Fables..
Jon Reiss and Sheri Candler have, along with The Film Collaborative, taken a serious look at case studies of the real figures and details behind indie film distribution and shared transparent data, multiple point of view analysis plus the filmmaker perspectives on numerous projects, in a transparent and informative book that will give you a real insight into the realities and myths of distributing films the indie way... which, let's face it, is sometimes the only way. This book makes things somewhat easier in what has previously been a difficult field to navigate with the limited information that's been available until now. Well laid out and very informative.
Thanks
