FAQ #1: "When can I see Jake?"

Posted by on 10 January 2010 | 0 Comments

The short answer: sometime in 2010, we hope!

The long answer: we are currently submitting Jake to film festivals around the world. The application process for film festivals is expensive, especially factoring in shipping from New Zealand, so we're being selective in what festivals we apply to at this point, but if there's a festival that you think we should be applying to for whatever reason, let us know in the comments and we'll take a look!

As we hear back from festivals, we will also be talking to distributors. This is uncharted ground for us and we don't know exactly what's going to happen, to the point where it would be foolish to guess. And in 2010, the distribution landscape is ever-shifting - internet distribution is becoming more and more mainstream, and the typical "play festivals/get limited theatrical release/go to video" or "get into festivals/don't get theatrical release/go directly to video" paths are no longer the only two options for indies.

But one way or another, we are committed to making sure that as many people see Jake as possible, in the best quality possible, as soon as is reasonably possible.

When we know more, you'll hear about it right here!
