To my eager filmmakers and students aspiring to promote and market the works that come from your blood, sweat, and tears, I have great news about my short musical pop/rock film: A Love By Your Side. While the news is technically the greatest news for me, it is absolute proof that you can accomplish the very same results. But you must work very hard at promoting and marketing your films before your film festival date arrives and during the actual festival if you want to go home with a “win” for your film. The ultimate goal, in addition to a win, is distribution. Alas, here is my first “win” at Flagler Film Festival. It has also, so far, been an Official Selection at the Mediterranean Film Festival (Sicily), A Finalist at the LA CineFest, and also a Finalist at the IndustryBOOST Competition. More is likely to come.

Many film festivals require ballot votes and are not necessarily focused on anything else. Therefore, anybody who sees your movie should be reminded by you to vote for it on their way out if they enjoyed it. Many will.
Because my film, A Love By Your Side, is a “short,” getting distribution would normally be a challenge, but it isn’t anymore, thanks to the companies I mentioned in my previous article dedicated to you. With this said, even A Love By Your Side can be picked up by a festival for distribution. *CLICK HERE TO DISCOVER THESE DISTRIBUTORS.*

I just wanted to share the good news with you about: A Love By Your Side, because it belongs to you as well if you follow my directions with your own film or video projects. If I can win at a prestigious festival and have access to new distribution options, so can you. Get to it. Until next time!!
