A good press release can get you coverage on your movie, TV show, or web series far and wide.
Ever want to tell all your family, friends, and distant relations to watch, read, or share something you’ve made or news stories you are about? It can feel impossible to email and text everyone you know and look for connections that can help take this event far and wide.
It kind of sucks to toot your own horn, but in this industry, you have to if you want a return on your investment. You need a news release.
When you have a new project coming out, it is imperative to get as many eyes on it as possible. As filmmakers, we strive to reach the widest audience possible, and that’s where the press release comes in.

Let’s begin.
