In this book, author Scott Kirkpatrick uses his decade of experience in the distribution arena to explore what fuels the distribution process and explains in real-world terms how the business works from beginning to end--not merely what happens to a film or television series after a distributor acquires it, but how distributors pre-sell the content. Kirkpatrick covers deal structures, release strategies, acquisition approaches, rights sales, tax credits, audience research, global regulatory boards, and even 'behind closed doors' monetization practices"-- Provided by publisher.
