SELLING MOVIES GLOBALLY…(Hot Tip #3)…(“The 5 Major Film Markets? How to contact/join?””)….(September 19, 2013) 5 BIGGEST FILM MARKETS: When I state a Film Market I am referring to an actual organization, an event, a trade show….where deals (Pre-sells or Foreign Sales) are made. What I am not referring to is a nation (Japan, Israel, Russia, China) or territory (Middle East, Scandinavia, East Africa, etc) that deals are made with. Film Market refers to a Trade Show for Dealmaking. Film market does not refer to a nation or territory. Now let’s proceed. When you have (1) a Package (Script, Budget, Talent Commitments) and desire to Pre-Sell it for funding to the 35 nations or territories, at discount prices, that you would (2) have sold (aka: Foreign Sales, Foreign Licenses) for additional Profits and growing Revenues… you attend a FILM MARKET.
