Stories of Distribution with Stacey Maltin of Besties Make Movies
Manage episode 362348497 series 3450747
On this episode I interview Stacey Maltin, one of the partners of the production company, Besties Make Movies. Stacey falls into that category of filmmakers who actually has gotten distribution for their movies, but in this day and age, I think there’s still plenty for filmmakers who are leaning towards self-distribution to take away here. In fact, I’m learning more and more that this distinction between distribution and self-distribution isn’t always so clear cut, and that even filmmakers who get some form of distribution still end up working quite hard to promote and market their films alongside whatever distribution deal they do get. In this interview, Stacey talks about she and her partners’ experience in making and distributing their first feature, called Landing Up; and then some good, honest discussion about the release of their latest feature, Triple Threat, put out by Gravitas Ventures. Along the way Stacey exudes her love of filmmaking, and offers a wealth of wisdom and invaluable advice for independent filmmakers.
