The Business of Filmmaking with Antoine Allen

As creatives it is easy to lose sight of the fact that filmmaking is a  business. We get so wrapped up into wanting to get our films in  festivals or on streaming platforms, that may not pay us our worth, we  forget that there are other ways to get a return on the investment we  put into our film projects. We forget to use our creativity to think  outside the box and look for innovative ways to market and distribute  our films. Antoine Allen has managed to transform his indie film  aspiration into a successful filmmaking career without a distributor or  sales agent. His marketing strategies for creating buzz around his film  projects before they come out is outstanding. Antoine will share with us  how he managed to make $80,000 on his indie film that no one was  interested in buying and how his determination and fortitude has proven  time and time again, there is money to be made as an independent  filmmaker when you don’t limit yourself to the status quo.
