Distribution Myth #5
A Trailer Is Just A Trailer Not true. That's right! You heard it here first! I've sold many many films to distributors all over the world based solely on a good trailer. Isn't that great news? That means even if your film didn't turn out the way you wanted it to, the good news is that you can make a great trailer, and still have a shot at recouping some of your investment money. Which brings me to: The trailer is the most important tool in marketing your movie! Do not take it lightly! Hire an experienced editor to cut together a rockin' trailer for you. What does a rockin' trailer look like you ask? Well, we've all seen great movie trailers but for a refresher course, you can simply head on over to www.apple.com/trailers. Apple hosts a tons of great trailers, from both studio films and indies. What better way to see what kind of trailer you should be cutting then to watch the great trailers for films that actually have gotten distribution?
