RE: Steemit exclusive WORLD PREMIERE of THE JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY / Episode 01 / Cedric and Monica

in #art7 years ago

Very cool, I personally really love the cult-y style/vibe. My recommendation is to try and do small screenings across the country- maybe use some of your steemit payouts to fund a tour, kind of like Kevin Smith does with his newer work. It's a lot of legwork and advertising, but this way you can more easily hit the people who would be into this. Be sure to bring merch (t-shirts and stickers!) and maybe even do DVD pre-orders at the door... my biz brain is working for ya haha

There's always festivals but honestly I see that avenue dying unless you find a few niche fests which suit the target audience, which would be worth looking into.

Regardless, I'm looking forward to being able to watch the rest! Much luck to you!!

Yo D!
in this 2 month old post I express all my thought and experience submitting to film festival.
We sent more then one invitation to Kevin Smith to come here to watch our film (I doubt he receive any of them, if you are on twitter feel free to go drop him the link of the first episode :) When I saw Clerks 20 years ago it's the first time I heard actors in a film talking like me and my friends and I was pretty inspired by that. No tour for me because I have a corporate studio to run in my real life! But if we do need a tour promoter someday I now know who to call!!!
Keep chewing the JUJU because it's good for you!!!

ah must've missed that post - but yeah I totally agree, hence the "I see that avenue dying" comment haha

I hear you on the tour front, too. Just throwing ideas out there anyway! Thank goodness for Steemit!!
