Please put your questions for Peter and Keith in the chat and we will call on folks later in the session to ask those questions out loud. Please keep questions relevant to what we are discussing in each session. Today we are talking about DESIGNING VIRTUAL SCREENINGS and HARNESSING VIRTUAL SCREENINGS. Please only put each question (about DESIGNING VIRTUAL SCREENINGS and HARNESSING VIRTUAL SCREENINGS) in the chat one time. If someone asks a question that you would also like to hear answered, please make note of that in the chat. ---------------------------- 11:17:12 From Adriana Marchione (she/her) : I’m curious about the fact that people are now inundated with virtual events/screenings/workshops due to the pandemic, and if this could limit the interest for people in a virtual screening at this time. Thoughts about this? 11:17:15 From Pamela Sporn : How might the offer to download the film conflict with educational sales? 11:17:32 From Mimi deGruy : I think I saw it in a theater here in Santa Barbara as part of the SBIFF Cinema society 11:18:00 From Maria Fortiz-Morse : Hello! Maria here from occupied lands of Ramaytush Ohlone in San Francisco. 11:18:05 From Claire Panke : +1 Pamela’s question 11:18:09 From Maria Fortiz-Morse : I saw 5 Seasons in person and it was amazing. 11:18:23 From Maria Fortiz-Morse : All shot on GH4/5. 11:19:06 From Maria Fortiz-Morse : @Adriana Marchione, I was thinking the same thing. 11:19:33 From Meagan Lopez : Even if people seem to be inundated, the world is a very large place, and people are more online than ever before and more adapted to this type of experience…in my experience working in advertising and marketing, now is the best time to do this. 11:19:48 From Dianne Griffin : +1 What service did they use for these free screenings? 11:20:00 From francesca soans : +1 Adriana 11:20:09 From Amy Jenkins : + Adriana 11:21:00 From Robin Rosenthal : What screening platform did he use back then? 11:21:15 From DAN HABIB : +1 Dianne and Robin 11:21:23 From Amy Jenkins : + Robin and Dianne 11:21:36 From Maria Fortiz-Morse : +1 Dianne Griffin question - I know Five Seasons used on-demand distribution for theatrical - Jim Brown at Argotpictures.com — I’m not sure about his virtual screenings, though. 11:21:37 From Mimi deGruy : Wondering about international audiences if your film is in English. 11:21:49 From Keith Ochwat (he/him) : @Robin, the FIVE SEASONS partner, Hauser & Wirth hosted a vimeo link on their website 11:22:05 From Alejandro Enríquez García : Ok with 5 seasons numbers, but how did he do it? 11:22:06 From Keith Ochwat (he/him) : so unfortunately, the director, Tom, didn’t collect those 1M emails... 11:22:11 From Zhu Shen : What % of viewers of 5 Seasons did they get emails and/or bought the download for? 11:22:17 From Claire Panke : So is asking for donation for screenings the way to combine desire to share your film with a wide audience but not give it all away for free? Especially if you’re in debt from making your film :) 11:22:19 From Amanda Dyer : +1 Ryan Mayers 11:22:24 From Heather L : I can understand the benefits of free screenings but when you allow downloads don’t you increase the risk of plagiarism & other people uploading your movie and making it available other places? 11:22:41 From Sheila Ganz : Loved the film! 11:23:14 From Matthew Eisen : +1 Heather 11:23:25 From Vivien Wu : Have attended 2, never hosted one 11:23:29 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : Yes I did a virtual event in September for my film - showed three short segments and more 11:23:49 From Christopher Dawes : Question: If I look at the IMDB page for Five Seasons, it is a perfect example of an awful IMDB page with no info. Where do IMDB pages figure into all of this? A badly constructed IMDB page is a big turn off for me personally. Even for something as simple as where to watch the film, there’s no such info for Five Seasons on their IMDB page, so you’re losing potential viewers, aren’t you? 11:23:57 From Chithra Jeyaram : Haven’t hosted one but have a request from a cancer organization to host the screening for their community followed by a Q&A so this is superhelpful 11:23:59 From Claire Panke : I said no because haven’t hosted myself but I have HAD virtual screenings, just hosted by another group. 11:24:10 From Vivien Wu : The ones I attended were done through universities' special interest groups 11:24:17 From Rick Minnich : I’m doing a virtual sneak preview fundraising event next week. 11:24:17 From Dianne Griffin : We just did a virtual event yesterday with Painted Nails documentary. www.paintednailsmovie.com 11:24:23 From Alexandra Lexton : I too @ claire have had virtual screening hosted 11:24:31 From Lisa Gossels : Ditto @ Claire 11:25:00 From Meagan Lopez : I wish there had been a "maybe" 11:25:11 From Susan Hamovitch : I’ve got one coming up a week from tomorrow. What timing! 11:25:17 From Wendy Lobel : +1 Christopher 11:25:25 From Meagan Lopez : Nothing beats live, though, for that good feeling… 11:25:38 From David Streit (he) : Keith: 11:25:55 From Michael Jacobsohn : Michael Jacobsohn: mjacobs2008@gmail.com 11:26:24 From Lisa Gossels : wirth 11:27:10 From Doug Block : I partnered with Mark Stolaroff (in his role as head of No Budget Film Club) on a virtual screening to launch the 30th anniversary re-release of my 1st film, The Heck with Hollywood! It was very successful (sold 250 tickets) but following up on it for sales of the film has been an issue as all of the promotion went to the virtual event and not the actual launch (on Gumroad) 11:27:17 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : ---------------------------- Hot tip: if you need captions, you can click the CC Live Transcript button down at the bottom of your screen and select “show subtitle.” ---------------------------- 11:28:25 From Terry O'Neill : Oh, gawd, not nfts! 11:29:28 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : What are NFTs? 11:29:39 From Ned Augustenborg : Question: Is PIRATING more of a concern in the world of virtual screenings? 11:30:13 From Zhu Shen : +1 Ned 11:30:35 From Heather L : A lot of people who do crowd campaigns give away digital copies of the final film - do you suggest this or not? Seems like it could cut into virtual screenings later. (As well as traditional distribution opportunities.) Thanks. 11:30:55 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : Hungry For Change Bulletin: https://peterbroderick.com/distributionbulletins/files/dab0b3638aee0a2f75999397dbd5a9e4-20.html 11:31:00 From Alex Leff : +1 Heather 11:31:24 From David Streit (he) : Virtual screenings are so new. Keith, can you talk about the bugs in the process? What you’re learning now? 11:31:25 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : Bowmakers Bulletin: https://peterbroderick.com/distributionbulletins/files/c59eafac7ebaae6389861a1cd4559b08-54.html 11:31:37 From Heather L : +1 Ned (I asked same thing earlier specifically re: allowing downloads vs viewing from a link) 11:31:45 From Pamela Sporn : +David Streit 11:32:21 From Chithra Jeyaram : + David 11:33:04 From DAN HABIB : Keith, maybe you will get to this, but what fees or charges do filmmakers incur when using Show and Tell for screenings? Can you give some info on the financial model for your platform? 11:33:36 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : Peter Broderick interview with director of “5 Seasons”: https://peterbroderick.com/distributionbulletins/files/f45ec8d9753a62465b1b03806d56ba8c-48.html 11:33:41 From Adriana Marchione (she/her) : Question: Keith - for the Bowmakers screening - did they get a $3000 fee for screening at a symphony and then also charged for tickets and asked for donations? Then splitting the cost with the symphony? I am trying to understand exactly how this is broken down. 11:34:01 From Annika Iltis : +1 Adriana 11:34:02 From Dianne Griffin : This is super important having partners share their email list at the least 11:34:15 From Pamela Sporn : Can you show and example of the stand alone email. 11:34:17 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : I am doing a free screening with the American Contract Bridge League. Should I heavily promote this amongst my email list etc as well? 11:34:24 From Pamela Sporn : An example 11:34:44 From Claire Panke : +1 David +1 Dan H 11:35:43 From Eladio Arvelo : Keith, which fulfillment services do you recommend to provider digital downloads during virtual events on platforms like Show&Tell? 11:36:36 From Sheil Seclearr : Would Earned Media make it a public event? In case you want a Festival Premiere 11:36:42 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : Any good resources for writing press releases or getting in touch with news outlets in an effective way? 11:37:01 From Patrick Norman (he/him) : +1 Brittany 11:37:16 From Vivien Wu : +1 Sheil 11:37:40 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : @brittany and @Patrick, I am an experienced publicist and can help 11:37:47 From Claire Panke : +1 sheil - won’t that compete with other “windows” since you’re not supposed to give out to public until last thing? 11:38:02 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : Thanks Peter! 11:38:41 From Don Colacino : Do virtual screening audiences not care about screen size and sound quality? I’m concerned that even though my film is a doc, production values are wasted on virtual screenings. 11:39:25 From Patrick Norman (he/him) : thanks Peter! 11:39:33 From Rick Minnich : @Don: I don’t think viewers really care much about screen size and quality. It’s only us filmmakers who are obsessed about it. 11:40:47 From Alka Raghuram : Can you talk about how to advertise for a virtual screening 11:40:49 From Lisa Hall : If your film is taking the shape of a mini documentary series….can that format work for a virtual screening? 11:40:56 From Ned Augustenborg : QUESTION: Have any events been broken up in 2 parts to accommodate the length of the film? 11:41:14 From Amanda Dyer : +1 Lisa Hall 11:41:19 From Myriam Zumbuehl she / her : QUESTION: i want to sell DVD & gadgets (printed bags) but worry how if i add a financial burden (will I sell all of it or live with 500 bags for the rest of my life). what has been the experience with goodies in the online store? 11:41:29 From Sue Arbuthnot : +1 Lisa 11:41:38 From Anne Davis O'Neal : +1 Myriam 11:41:43 From Allen Wolf : I would love to hear some stories about how virtual screenings have not gone well and what filmmakers learned from those. 11:41:47 From Michelle Paymar (she/her) : Is it best to offer a shorter version of the film for virtual screenings (92min vs. 60 min.)? 11:41:52 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : @Lisa Hall - check out “Bazooka” series in Seattle… they are doing virtual and doing slow reveals. Not utilizing this model per say, but doing it all virtual 11:42:03 From Patrick Norman (he/him) : +1 Allen 11:42:27 From David Kessler : My documentary The Pine Barrens has a live element, the score is performed live. I want to have my virtual screening include a window showing the performance. I'd love to get any advice or ideas on how to do that, any platforms that would work best. 11:42:29 From Mark Gordon : To what extent have you facilitated your subscribers to broker/provide consultation to others that want to host a Virtual Event? Who has successfully done it? What was the process and the results? 11:42:43 From Robert Rooy : How important is IMDB, all told? 11:42:43 From Michael Jacobsohn : Is it necessary for the film to be hosted by a service like Show&Tell., or do you think it is possible to stream yourself? 11:43:25 From Therese Shechter : Given that festivals are virtual right now and have the potential for larger audiences - does that cut into ticket sales for future screenings? Especially when festivals don’t share revenue or emails with filmmakers. 11:43:33 From Karen Zhang : Question: if we do the virtual screening while the file is still in production, how many times will you suggest before the final film is done? Shall I setup a couple of them along the way of making the film? Or just 1 for each partners group? 11:43:35 From Lisa Hall : @Elliat….Thank you! 11:44:53 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : @Lisa of course! 11:44:55 From Susan Hamovitch : Do you get a testimonial from your partner about the V Screening? 11:44:58 From Dianne Griffin : +Theresa 11:45:06 From Jim Becket Ojai, CA he/him : Myriam mailing can be a drag and if abroad expensive. We went through that with kickstarter and won’t doit again, but we don’t have potential merch anyway. 11:46:04 From Lillian Glass : How do you collect the email list 11:46:39 From Zhu Shen : +1 Lillian 11:46:46 From Myriam Zumbuehl she / her : thanks jim - i’m a sucker for merch, so i really have to hold myself back ;-) oversea shipping costs a good argument 11:46:52 From Michael Jacobsohn : I wonder if it is possible to buy email lists for virtual screenings? 11:46:56 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : Show & Tell collects email addresses 11:47:04 From Jim Becket Ojai, CA he/him : We’ve done some successful virtual screenings only with donations, have had some 20K views. Concern film festivals won’t like this??? 11:47:13 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : TO ACCESS ALL OF PETER’S BULLETINS: https://peterbroderick.com/distributionbulletins/distributionbulletins.html 11:47:40 From Vivien Wu : +1 Jim. and the other uestion about film festivals 11:48:05 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : This works for scenes of films that aren’t finished yet, yes? 11:48:43 From Amy Jenkins : Assuming the Bowmakers film event s are limited geographically if pitching to do virtual screenings with different symphonies? 11:48:50 From francesca soans : One hour before my virtual event, a reminder email sent out the wrong link, so many people could not tune in. 11:49:17 From Cynthia Salzman Mondell, she, her : Symphonies Organizations have money to pay $3000. How do you convince non-profits with limited budgets to pay the $3000? 11:49:18 From Robin Rosenthal : If Bowmakers invites general pubic (off partner press buys) does that mean they are well past film festival premieres. 11:49:40 From Ellen Bruno : What is your thinking about set ticket fees vs donations to enter and view? And if you advise set prices, what price level seems to work best to allow as many people to participate? 11:49:50 From Therese Shechter : +1 Cynthia 11:49:51 From Diane Vicari : Can you build a virtual audience by doing small event with a 15 minute cut or 7 min cit? and build from there? 11:50:20 From Wendy Lobel : +1 Diane 11:50:29 From Connie Bottinelli : +1 Diane Vicari 11:50:38 From Anne Davis O'Neal : +1 Diane 11:50:46 From Laj P. Waghray : What is a good length for virtual event? 11:51:00 From Heather L : When a film like Five Seasons does super well with free screenings do you find that conventional distributors who get involved afterward lowball the filmmaking claiming they have eroded the audience? 11:51:20 From Myriam Zumbuehl she / her : +1 heather! good question 11:51:31 From Jon Fein : As Lisa asked, how would this work with a limited series? 11:51:33 From Heather L : Thanks Myriam :) 11:51:48 From DAN HABIB : Keith, what fees or charges do filmmakers incur when using Show and Tell for screenings? Can you give some info on the financial model for your platform? 11:51:51 From Mark Meatto : In your experience Keith, when best to hold Q&A if you are doing, say, a week-long V screening window? 11:51:55 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : What was the recommended window for virtual screenings to be available? (Missed it) 11:52:14 From Meagan Lopez : 48 hours to 7 days @Elliat 11:52:19 From Lillian Glass : How do you collect emails for a virtual event 11:52:26 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : Thank you @Meagan! 11:52:31 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : I had a film in a virtual film festival that had a weeklong window to watch and then a q&a at the end of the week and it worked well and was very enjoyable as a filmmaker. 11:52:33 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : David, I did a virtual event and an audience member couldn’t get their link to work. I was able to send them my link and that worked. 11:52:37 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : On S&T 11:52:57 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : @Dan Habib - from what I’ve seen, it’s $250 for 3 virtual screenings + % of ticket sales 11:53:34 From Steven Byrne, Detroit : I work in the festival world, and I can vouch that the tech side for the filmmakers has gotten much easier in the past year. Doing secure, high-quality screenings is NOT that difficult. 11:53:55 From Heather L : @Elliat - do you know what percentage of ticket sales? 11:53:56 From Mark Meatto : Thank you @Brittany 11:54:07 From Jim Becket Ojai, CA he/him : Repeating Heather’s question will a sales agent be discouraged if virtual screening have been shown to say 30K people? 11:54:16 From Allen Wolf : If they can’t pay the $3K, could you also suggest a 40/60 split in favor of the film? 11:54:21 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : break time! 11:54:30 From Heather L : Thanks @Jim Becket 11:54:30 From Keith Ochwat (he/him) : if you want to learn more about hosting a virtual event on Show&Tell, email my teammate, Nadia na@showandtell.film 11:54:36 From Judy Branfman : +1 Diane 11:54:40 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : Thanks, David, for asking about the problems. It’s good to know in advance. I’m still wondering if there are technical issues to be aware of and be prepared to handle (eg streaming issues, link issues as mentioned, etc). 12:01:53 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : I have a question about last week’s session, which I wasn’t able to attend. Should I email about that? 12:02:29 From Robert Rooy : TECH Just in case there’s time — my working title is King John and his Wing Bitches. Would love to know if it’s even acceptable in terms of language… 12:06:35 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : NW based filmmakers: this is a free service for digitally hosted and facilitated works in progress for doc filmmakers: https://www.seattledocumentary.org/work-in-progress 12:07:00 From Chithra Jeyaram : Thank you @Elliat 12:07:10 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : @Robert Rooy I love your title <3 12:09:29 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : I have been managing their virtual events for them and it has been a blast! They’re doing fabulous work. 12:10:15 From lauren levine : Are the Cure team able to charge other orgs - like Harvard for the screenings ? 12:10:34 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : +1 12:10:44 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : Good to know, Lex! Is there a good price range to budget if you want someone to manage your virtual events? 12:12:01 From Amanda Dyer : +1 Lauren Levine 12:12:31 From Sam Smartt : If I’m sharing a 15-minute cut of my film to pitch to conference planners, why not just send a Vimeo link and then set up a meeting after they’ve had time to watch? How exactly would a “virtual event” be different in this case? 12:12:42 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : Brittany, it really depends on how many events you’re doing. You can email me if you want to chat about it. I’m at lex@lexryan.co (not .com). 12:15:29 From Sam Smartt : How did what you screened at the keynote differ from what you’d screened at the virtual event? 12:16:02 From Mark Birnbaum : + Sam 12:17:01 From Lillian Glass : What departments do you go to in the University to get them involved. 12:17:54 From Ellen Bruno : What about a well stages/curated fundraising event with a work-in-progress screening - with potential funders, subject area experts who are champions of the film to show potential funders the value from the experts? 12:20:53 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : @Keith - windowed streaming license makes sense. Makes me think of how we all have to pay for subscriptions now for apps like Premiere, etc. Very different model than buying a disc for desktop. 12:21:19 From Sam Smartt : One question I have about these shorter cuts that I should have asked last week: what if you have a film with a very unexpected ending? On the one hand I don’t want to give it away in the short version because the cat will be out of the bag. On the other hand I don’t want to mislead people. My film is about an astronomer who makes an incredible discovery (the hook), but ends up being wrong because of a typo another guy made 20 years ago… #spoileralert! luminous-film.com 12:21:46 From Jim Becket Ojai, CA he/him : On the DVD or not question, has anyone had experience selling DVDS to libraries as I know some people still take DVDS out of the public library. 12:22:04 From Hsuan Pan : +Ellen Bruno 12:22:26 From Sam Smartt : ^^^ ends up being wrong after 5 years of working on the project, which is the bulk of the film. 12:22:40 From Adriana Marchione : Do people use DVD’s anymore? Surprised that is still marketable/desirable. 12:22:51 From Robin Grey : Does selling DVDs cut in to the ability to license the film for profit? 12:23:14 From Mark Gordon : Would you please address my earlier questions, Keith? 12:23:29 From Alejandro Enríquez García : How do you share revenues with festivals like CPH? 12:23:44 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : @Sam - can you hint that something is wrong and show the scramble to figure it out? Increase intrigue without giving it away? 12:24:28 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : +1 Alejandro - my only experience of getting any funds with festivals is if they request your film and you can charge a screening fee 12:25:57 From Melissa Regan : + Ellen Bruno 12:26:21 From Claire Panke : I still don’t understand if you have a virtual event even hosted by an organization and on the platform or after the screening you offer DVD’s/online streaming for a price, how is that different than consumer release? Will educational /institutional balk because it’s been publicly seen and possibly “advertised” via print media or other means? How do these “windows” criss-cross and do you have caveats or insights into this aspect. 12:26:49 From Annika Iltis : +1 to Claire 12:27:40 From Caren Zucker and Donvan : +1 Claire 12:27:41 From Sam Smartt : How do you incentivize people to come to a virtual event just to hear a pitch or watch a trailer?? Especially if the ideal is to get strangers who are giving you honest feedback, as opposed to friends and family. 12:27:49 From Patrick Norman (he/him) : +1 Claire 12:27:51 From Odette Scott : +1 to Claire - film download sales is consumer sales no? 12:28:09 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : I found live feedback to be much more helpful than emailed and written feedback 12:28:30 From Doug Block : +1 to Sam 12:29:05 From Lisa Hall : If using a platform like Show and Tell, who handles the fulfillment of the dvd’s, t-shirts, or other? Is that the filmmaker’s responsibility? 12:29:08 From Hamilton Sterling : +1 Claire 12:29:11 From Wendy Lobel : If doing a virtual event to find out more about your teaser or title or pitch, who funds that? 12:29:57 From Cynthia Salzman Mondell, she, her : How do you go from the screening to a Q&A on Zoom? 12:30:10 From Javier Prato : Is it possible to embed/have the virtual screening of Showandtell on my own film website? and is possible to export my audience's info? 12:30:16 From Alejandro Enríquez García : Some distributors are beginning to do partnerships. Ro*co for example. 12:31:23 From Therese Shechter : How do we deal with this: Film festivals have significantly larger audiences when they going virtual. Many more people now can see a film through the festival with zero revenues and zero email addresses going back to the filmmaker. Seems like this would adversely affect audiences for future virtual screenings and their revenues. How do we get around this if we still want to do festivals? 12:31:33 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : ---------------------------- TO DISCUSS IN BREAKOUT ROOMS: How can you best integrate virtual events into your distribution strategy? ---------------------------- 12:31:35 From Adriana Marchione : Lex, can you put your email address in the chat? Thank you! 12:52:34 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : We had a great breakout - thank you! 12:52:51 From Alejandro Enríquez García : Great breakout group!! 12:54:00 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : I’ve had a few people asking so here is my email address: lex@lexryan.co (not .com — it is .co) and my cell is 631-327-1070 12:54:18 From Beth Dolan (she/her) : Martha Jackson — a pleasure to meet you. Let’s you, me and Susan have a zoom visit — would love to do that! 12:54:36 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : Love that idea!!! 12:55:07 From Martha Jackson : Absolutely, Beth! Thx. 12:55:09 From Rick Minnich : Great idea with the 10 women series. 12:55:57 From Susan Stern : lost audio 12:56:19 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : Susan, you may want to check your audio on your computer (maybe in system preferences) 12:56:27 From Mark Maxey : www.beyondsixty.com if anyone is interested in learning more about the film. Gravitas is distributing. 12:56:32 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : You could also leave the meeting and re-enter. 12:57:38 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : We’ll go to Kathy and then Diane before Q&A but I think they are the last two we will hear from for the debrief. 12:58:06 From Alejandro Enríquez García : About stand alone mails: do you mean that you design the email and the partner approves it and sends it from their e-mail address? 12:58:17 From Robin Rosenthal : Ellen, sounds like creating a virtual Board with different skills and interests of the “Board” members. Good idea! 12:59:27 From Dianne Griffin : +Alejandro 13:00:33 From Paul Espinosa : Size of breakout was great. I'm at espipaul@gmail.com 13:00:51 From Nicole Betancourt : re board - maybe call it an advisory council so there is no fiscal responsibility 13:00:56 From Connie Bottinelli : @Ellen Bruno - what a refreshing take on how to define a screening! 13:01:15 From Therese Shechter : Thank you everyone! Great session. I have to jump into another meeting. 13:01:48 From Amy Jenkins : Can you talk about a variety of platforms for virtual events? Give a brief list of competing services. 13:02:11 From Susan Stern : +1 Amy 13:02:19 From Shannon Eckstein : +1 Amy 13:02:20 From Odette Scott : +1 Amy 13:02:34 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : +1 Amy 13:03:15 From Robin Rosenthal : Is there a way to access a “public” screening on Show & Tell so we can get a feel of how it works? 13:03:34 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : +1 13:03:46 From Claire Panke : I am curious if Keith has has filmmakers use Show & Tell and ended up “losing” money with the event if they didn’t sell more than $250 of items or tickets, even though I realize they are GAINING viewers and the feeling of an event, an experience, and the platform looks very elegant. Many filmmakers are already in debt so it’s a concern without being the only concern. 13:04:48 From Sam Smartt : +1 Claire, and also to Claire’s earlier question ^^^ 13:04:51 From Wendy Lobel : +1 Robin 13:04:56 From Regan Brashear (they/she) : @amy here’s a link to a Virtual Screening Guide, created by the team at Looky Looks Pictures, and crowdsourced: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BsKBWeDnOBIVZWxgosU4LFkAb1M7_CFdR768qdd9TgA/edit#gid=439864940 13:05:06 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : $250 is for 3 screenings, Claire. I think it would be almost impossible to lose money. Feel free to reach out to me directly if you like for more thoughts about virtual events. 13:05:07 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : I really appreciate this bit of advice from Keith (hopefully paraphrased accurately): Don’t waste time getting a million partners - work on exceeding expectations for a few partners 13:05:08 From Regan Brashear (they/she) : *Looky Looky 13:05:43 From Vivien Wu : Thanks for sharing Brittany, that is good advice 13:06:43 From Meagan Lopez : I’m really curious how people use “gathering creative feedback” because I can’t see a great way to do this without heavily curating who I am inviting to this. 13:06:49 From Paul Espinosa : Can you leave the poll results up? 13:07:51 From Amy Jenkins : Thanks so much, @Regan, really helpful. 13:07:56 From Connie Bottinelli : +1 Claire’s earlier question 13:08:09 From A'magine | she/they : WE did a virtual screening for feedback for At Your Cervix back in Oct and that resulted in one of the doctors in the film asking if he could invite three reps from the America Medical Student assoc, and they were so impressed and now are on board as a partner, are going to work with us on the toolkit, and this morning invited me to be on a panel for medical students. We are thrilled about this partnership. 13:08:39 From Vivien Wu : @A'magine: Great success story 13:09:01 From Pamela Sporn : Thanks @Regan! 13:09:03 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : I think Geoblocking is aggravating to the consumer and makes the consumer mad 13:09:09 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : Yes, that’s amazing, A’magine! 13:09:21 From Janice Villarosa : If we do fundraising in Show and Tell, how much does Show and Tell get for fees? Is it the same as showing regular screenings? 13:09:25 From Beth Dolan (she/her) : Awesome, @A’magine! 13:09:27 From Judy Branfman : @A'magine great title! congrats 13:09:29 From Rick Minnich : Fantastic, A’magine! 13:10:34 From Vicki Topaz : @A’imagine FABULOUS (from Vicki Topaz) 13:11:04 From David Kessler : We would love a Slack or Discord for the class so we could easily continue the conversations outside of class/breakout rooms. Something to consider. 13:11:18 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : Good idea, David K 13:11:24 From Annika Iltis : +1 Davd K 13:11:33 From Blair Naujok : +1 David 13:12:04 From A'magine | she/they : Thanks everyone. We are also hosting an event for Medical students on a reproductive justice track in the next month which gets our film in front of perhaps our most important audience. 13:12:35 From Wendy Lobel : +1 David 13:12:36 From Odette Scott : +1 David that would be amazing 13:13:31 From Judy Branfman : +1 David 13:14:01 From A'magine | she/they : crowd-funding PTSD. It's a new diagnosis. LOL. 13:14:19 From Vivien Wu : Keith: if you use Show & Tell for fundraising, does the general audience or anybody other than filmmaker/Show&Tell see the sales progress? 13:14:20 From Adriana Marchione : That is so validating about crowdfunding events - PTSD - this is so real from my experience… 13:14:39 From Elle Kamihira : Kickstarter-triggered trauma hahahaha 13:14:55 From Joseph Applebaum : Never again 13:15:34 From Susan Hackley : I’m still so glad I did Kickstarter. It validated the concept for the film and showed people’s real interest. But it was tough! 13:15:59 From Janet Kirchheimer : +1 David 13:18:07 From Dianne Griffin : I feel you can overuse some of your best images beforehand good idea 13:18:55 From Dianne Griffin : Like the idea of using clips that were going to be on the cutting room floor as interest 13:19:05 From Pamela Sporn : Thank you 13:19:58 From Rick Minnich : Vimeo OTT is pretty useless for single films. It’s really geared toward studios that produce mass content. VHX was fantastic and perfect for indies, but Vimeo ruined it when it bought it. 13:20:28 From Doug Block : Gumroad is a good option as a platform. Fairly simple to use, good revenue share and you get customer emails 13:20:44 From Allen Wolf : Just FYI - Vimeo OTT is designed for someone who wants to create a platform with subscribers. If there’s another service that offers posting films and getting emails, etc., I’d love to know what that is. 13:20:58 From Michael Jacobsohn : Describe educational kits? How elaborate do they need to be? 13:22:32 From Patrick Norman (he/him) : Keith: could you discuss some examples of email drip campaigns that have worked well for post-event audience follow ups? 13:23:03 From Wendy Lobel : If you’re asking experts or characters in your film to do multiple panel discussions, what do they get out of it besides the exposure? 13:23:22 From Rick Minnich : +1 Wendy 13:23:25 From Robbie Leppzer : I use Vimeo OTT for single films (transactional sales, instead of subscriptions) and it works well as a platform for streaming and downloads and I do receive people’s emails. No monthly fee. Only a fee for bulk uploading of videos. Vimeo OTT takes 10% for sales only, plus credit card processing fee. 13:23:51 From Doug Block : By way of example: www.gumroad.com/dougblock#VzkHA 13:24:58 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : Friday, April 30 at 11am PST 13:25:14 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : Wednesday, May 12 at 11am PST 13:25:29 From Judy Branfman : Will the extra sessions also be recorded? 13:25:49 From Rick Minnich : @Robbie, I set up several films on VHX and they are available as you describe but I couldn’t figure out how to upload new films since VHX became Vimeo OTT. 13:25:55 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : Yes, they will be recorded 13:26:33 From Adriana Marchione : This is fantastic, thank you everyone for all of your efforts to support us all. 13:27:15 From Janice Villarosa : What if you have multiple films with diff genres? 13:27:21 From Wendy Lobel : Is there still time to revise personal info for contact sheet? 13:27:35 From Mimi deGruy : I agree - thank you all. You are doing an awesome job at providing valuable insights and info! 13:27:48 From Robert Rooy : +1 Adriana! 13:28:02 From Susan Hamovitch : any advice on how to “get” a target audience that’sreluctant? (but that’s really important to you and the discussion) 13:28:12 From Susan Hamovitch : Where do we get the form? thnx 13:28:19 From Chithra Jeyaram : How do we know if we have already filled this form? 13:28:28 From Susan Hamovitch : never mind 13:28:35 From A'magine | she/they : This class is one of the best uses of our time. Thank you for making it so substantive and practical. 13:28:58 From Wendy Lobel : Great, thanks! 13:29:30 From Megan Sanchez-Warner : What is link to two-question Topic survey? 13:30:20 From Beth Dolan (she/her) : Such a good session. Thanks, Everyone! 13:30:22 From Odette Scott : This was a brilliant session. Check out the recording! 13:30:24 From Elliat Graney-Saucke : Thank you!! 13:30:32 From Regan Brashear (they/she) : Thank you, Peter! This sounds great. 13:30:34 From Kim Saltarski : Thanks for sharing the pitches Peter! 13:30:37 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : Questions about either form, the Class Directory or the Subject Area Sheet: just read the big email coming out tomorrow. This should answer all your questions. 13:30:44 From Sam Smartt : Gotta run, wish I could stick around for this. Thanks all!!! 13:30:56 From Cynthia Salzman Mondell, she, her : Pitching was a great and helpful sessions. 13:31:26 From Wendy Lobel : Loved it 13:31:35 From Cynthia Salzman Mondell, she, her : Loved that film! 13:31:48 From Louise Rosen : Desperately Seeking Susan is wonderful! 13:32:22 From Mark Meatto : Great session again! Gotta run, see you next week 13:32:23 From Cynthia Salzman Mondell, she, her : Saw it at a National Women In Film conference in DC. 13:32:33 From Beth Polish : Love it! 13:32:50 From Doug Block : A great title and great movie! 13:32:57 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : Agreed it’s a great title 13:33:49 From A'magine | she/they : I like that title. 13:34:12 From Dianne Griffin : Love both titles 13:35:10 From A'magine | she/they : Titles are tough. I feel like we found the perfect one for At Your Cervix and I am grateful. 13:36:03 From Meagan Lopez : My first short dark comedy was a play on words about female rage “Raging Cult” 13:36:15 From Steven Byrne, Detroit : I know you addressed Google, but taking the next step: How important is it for the title to be SEO friendly? 13:36:15 From Doug Block : Having it be a number puts it at the top of catalogues and festival listings. As someone who made 112 Weddings and 51 Birch Street, just saying. 13:36:55 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : My third 8mm film in high school, for a book report on Dante’s Inferno, “Dante, Go To Hell” 13:37:06 From Rick Minnich : @Doug: Very clever! 13:37:09 From Susan Hamovitch : I know! Wasn’t planning it, b ut having my film begin with 3 puts it at the head of most lists. My previous film began with the word ‘without’ never again 13:37:12 From Meagan Lopez : Good point Doug. 13:37:34 From Louise Rosen : @ Mark v.funny! 13:37:44 From Claire Panke : Feels so good when you find the right title. I had a few clunkers that were like an itchy sweater. Then I landed on Light Years. Fits the film perfectly. 13:38:12 From Patrick Norman (he/him) : Sid Sheinberg seriously wanted to change the title of “Back to the Future” to “Space Man from Pluto” until Spielberg sent him a memo that said, “thanks for your most humorous memo, we all got a big laugh out of it, keep 'em coming.” Sid never brought it up again. 13:38:53 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : @Patrick—that’s hilarious! 13:39:26 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : I think another good test is: how well does it trip off the tongue. If it’s hard to say, you and others will get caught up on it. 13:40:05 From Doug Block : One thing about numbered titles, though. People have a hard time remembering the number. 13:40:57 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : I produced a feature called “True Love.” We knew the title sucked, but we just gave up trying to find a better one. 13:41:06 From Julie Englander : Have to run, thank you for a great session! 13:42:43 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : How do you know the title is helping it succeed? Are there metrics to look for? 13:43:12 From CJ Crim : For my film about women in the resistance I saw a sign saying resister with sister highlighted. I thought if only that word could be used for a community of women . . . My title is Resisterhood. 13:43:15 From Alex Leff : +1 Brittany 13:43:22 From Janice Villarosa : +1 Brittany 13:43:48 From Renee Bergan : Love Resisterhood 13:43:52 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : When you google “better film” you get https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/better-a-short-film--2#/ - is this the right one? 13:44:53 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : Yeah Resisterhood is perfect 13:45:02 From Christi Cooper : Love Resisterhood as well! 13:45:38 From Jim Becket Ojai, CA he/him : We’ve invested enormously in our title The Seeds of Vandana Shiva. Branded etc. Peterand Keith thought it could be better way back when. Options are find a better one, not yet, find one like Battle over Food: the Seeds of Vandana shiva. That is incorporate the original title. Third leave it. Two sales agent also thought needed new more dynamic title. Another option is if a distributor took it and wanted it changed, then okay. 13:47:04 From Paul Steinbroner : Finding trust in the Cloud 13:47:33 From Robert Levi : Mine is: “Brothers in Sound: Hank, Thad, and Elvin Jones.” Too many words? It’s about brothers who were famous jazz musicians. 13:47:41 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : Just looked at your site @Jim. Why not call it Vandana? 13:48:27 From Wendy Lobel : What’s your feeling on a second “tag” line to titles? 13:48:52 From Shannon Cohn : +1 Wendy 13:49:01 From DAN HABIB : Bing Bing and the Biking Pioneers (?) 13:49:03 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : “Bing Bing and the Bicyle Race” has a nice ring 13:49:19 From Joel Gershon : Love the topic Robert. That title works, but maybe shorter? 13:49:30 From Lindsay Ofrias : Is the longline generally what comes after the colon? 13:49:41 From Claire Panke : I like just “The President’s Tailor” 13:49:41 From Joel Gershon : maybe *something shorter 13:49:47 From Heather L : Hi @Robert Levi - I think it’s long - especially for social media. 13:49:52 From Mike Sullivan : Only heard of Elvin Jones 13:50:06 From Susan Hamovitch : There was that wonderful film “Butler” about the presidents’ butler. 13:50:08 From Lance Murphey : The Tailor of Auschwitz 13:50:14 From Odette Scott : Thanks @brittany and @dan. I like both 13:50:23 From Judy Branfman : @Jim I like where you're going with your second title 13:50:46 From Dean Butler : Becoming The President 13:51:06 From Dean Butler : Becoming the President’s Tailor 13:51:17 From Lynn Roth : Are we taking too much risk with the title “ Shepherd: The Story of A Jewish Dog?” 13:51:17 From Janice Villarosa : Is there a checklist for us to go through? I have seen other film titles before that I did not care for but other industry people just loved. So am at a loss as far as what makes a good title. 13:51:35 From CJ Crim : The President’s Tailor: from Auschwitz to the White House 13:51:48 From Robert Rooy : Nice. 13:51:53 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : ^^ that’s nice 13:51:58 From Paul Steinbroner : Having a cross over film is the best way to go 13:52:03 From Nicole Betancourt : yes like that idea 13:52:12 From David Pelcyger : I’m wondering about memorable vs too common. My WT is Where the Rubber Meets the Road 13:52:19 From Janice Villarosa : Yeah like CJ’s feedback 13:52:25 From David Kessler : President's Taylor = The First Stitch 13:52:26 From Lindsay Ofrias : I’m here 13:53:35 From Ned Augustenborg : Is it important to have a key “search” word in the tile? Something that denotes the overall subject matter. 13:53:57 From Janice Villarosa : +1 Ned 13:54:21 From Myriam Zumbuehl she / her : the title got me hooked!! i want to be a strummer 13:54:24 From Mark Birnbaum : +Ned 13:54:28 From David Streit (he) : What a delight to “meet” all of you wonderful filmmakers! 13:54:38 From Peter McDowell (he, him) "Jimmy in Saigon" : I love LA hipsters! 13:55:13 From Christopher Dawes : Ukulele Hipsters 13:55:26 From Patrick Norman (he/him) : love it. this reminds me of “The Mighty Uke.” https://www.mightyukemovie.com 13:56:09 From Alka Raghuram : Bye guys!

I never understood that title. 13:57:20 From Brittany Alsot (she/her) : Even though I love the film 13:57:41 From Anne Davis O'Neal : Thanks Keith, Peter and colleagues for the helpful feedback live and in the chat! 13:57:48 From Lindsay Ofrias : I always think of the electronic voice on the Long Island RailRoad to “mind the gap” when stepping on and off the train @Brittany 13:57:55 From Odette Scott : I didn’t know that 13:58:03 From A'magine | she/they : Yeah I do't know the inside language for bridge so I would no 13:58:10 From Lindsay Ofrias : But I have no idea if that has anything to do with that movie 13:58:12 From A'magine | she/they : would not know* 13:58:31 From Mark Birnbaum : Bridge for Dummies? 13:58:37 From Nicole Betancourt : Teenage Bridge Club? 13:58:38 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : A Bridge Too Young 13:58:41 From Ned Augustenborg : Trump 13:58:56 From David Streit (he) : @Brittany It’s a saying from the London subway.

Usually it is fear or hatred or revenge. 14:00:40 From Robin Rosenthal : Selling Peace? 14:00:41 From David Streit (he) : Find another word for “peace” 14:00:46 From Amy Jenkins : Peace is Out 14:00:51 From TECH - Lex Ryan (they/them) : MINDING THE GAP: While navigating a complex relationship between his camera and his friends, Bing explores the gap between fathers and sons, between discipline and domestic abuse and ultimately that precarious chasm between childhood and becoming an adult. 14:00:56 From Nicole Betancourt : Peace of the Story 14:01:56 From Julie Bridgham : Yay @Cj! I think its going to be a fascinating story 14:02:00 From Wendy Lobel : Peace: for sale 14:02:54 From Lindsay Ofrias : Biking for….(insert noun?) 14:02:54 From Steven Byrne, Detroit : Peace Needs a Makeover 14:03:03 From Anne Davis O'Neal : Time Lost, Time Remembered 14:03:14 From Desiree Ickerodt : Peace Rebooted 14:03:36 From John McAllister | Double Dummy : I like “like riding a bike" 14:03:38 From TECH: Mark Stolaroff (He, Him) : I like “Like Riding A Bike” 14:03:44 From Susan Hamovitch : Thank you for all of this! gotta go… 14:04:04 From Claire Panke : Ride to Memory…no too corny.
