New Six-Month Distribution Intensive Presented by Jon Reiss and 8 Above

I work editorially with hundreds of filmmakers as they become ready for the next step: distribution. So I was thrilled to find out about an offering from distribution consultant Jon Reiss which many of you will want to investigate. The Six-Month Distribution Intensive is a weekly, six month immersive program. Jon is a distribution innovator who helped create and run the IFP/Gotham Distribution Lab.  

A few years back, I had the pleasure to work with Jon to distribute my own feature documentary American Visionary. He was always available, strategic, and, frankly, visionary! He opened up new vistas of distribution with which I wasn’t acquainted. In addition, he helped us get on Netflix and Amazon! His fee was definitely reasonable.

Jon created this new program because of the strong need for a collaborative environment that offers filmmakers the kind of knowledge, guidance, and resources they need in order to succeed in the ever-changing film distribution landscape.

• In an intimate cohort of up to ten film teams, filmmakers will learn how to create the best path to release and market their film.

• The Intensive consists of presentations by Jon and other noted experts in the field, hands-on discussions, feedback on their film and marketing materials, and one-on-one sessions with Jon to develop a concrete actionable plan to distribute your film. 

• The first Cohort starts November 29, 2023.  For more information click here: https://8above.com/6-Month-Intensive
