Deliverables Today
Your film is complete, you’ve had a great premier, and you’re in deep negotiations with a distributor, so what’s the problem? Perhaps it’s that you’ve stretched your budget as thin as possible to make it this far and now you’re learning that no deal will be complete without a long list of deliverables. These deliverables add a significant expense to a production’s budget, and those expenses are intensified if proper attention hasn’t been paid from the early stages. Deliverables Today will dissect a standard delivery sheet for an independent film to a distributor, looking at what items a distributor requires and why. We will examine some of the often-overlooked elements that filmmakers should be thinking about throughout production that will help down the line when a deal is in place.
