MARKET ANALYSIS
ASSESSING THE LANDSCAPE
Many beginning filmmakers, even many accomplished ones, remain confused about “the market”, when it comes to short films. But the true question is not “Is there a market?” but rather “Is there a market for me, my film, in the short film world?”
The answer is an unconditional “Yes.”Short films are more popular than ever. With more and more film festivals catering to short films, increasing outlets for distribution, and online platforms offering the promise of revenue sharing models, the appeal of making a short film is on the rise. Sundance alone received 8,740 short film submissions for this year’s fest. Add to that a predominantly women led production about a very serious female topic and you have a winning proposition on your hands .
