Hey everyone, it’s Sydney from the Stage 32 Education Team. I hope you’ve had a great week!
I wanted to pop in today to talk about distribution because there are so many opportunities for filmmakers to get their projects seen, and we want to make sure you have the tools to take full advantage of them.
One class I’m really excited about an upcoming class this month.. Chris Hazenbush's 4‑Part Distribution Guide for Documentaries, Docuseries, or Unscripted Projects. Chris walks you step by step through planning your distribution strategy, navigating the marketplace, and making sure your project reaches the right audience. Plus, direct access to Chris once you sign up and throughout the course. You’ll leave the live interactive class with practical steps you can start using immediately.
