Tribeca Film Institute at The New School: Festivals, Theaters, VOD and Piracy
THE NEW SCHOOL | http://www.newschool.edu

Digital video promises to democratize access to film, but it also threatens the financial well-being of people in the industry. Film can now be accessed online free of charge, both through advertising-supported models and through piracy. But while it has gotten easier for viewers to see films, it has gotten more difficult for filmmakers to reach an audience. Today filmmakers are faced with the challenge of re-envisioning and reinventing distribution. Some are making use of video on demand (VOD), digital delivery, and self-distribution. Others are considering screening their films in new venues—galleries, coffee shops, and museums—that reach crossover audiences or placing their hopes in the revival of the art house. And some anticipate that the film festival will be the best way to reach an audience in the future.

Join us for a lively panel discussion on the future of distribution, outreach, and audience development.

Speakers include Liz Ogilvie, VP of Marketing at B-Side Entertainment (formerly Head of Programming at Docurama Films®); Eliza Licht, Director of Community Engagement at P.O.V.; Paul Lovelace, New York based Director, Editor and Producer; and Megan Cunningham, Founder and CEO of Magnet Media. Moderated by Jim Browne, Founder of Argot Pictures, Programmer and Producer of film and video projects in New York City.

The panel is part of Tribeca Film Institute at The New School, a new series that presents leaders from film and digital media production, financing, and distribution. Co-sponsored by the Tribeca Film Institute and the Department of Media Studies and Film at The New School.
