Tribeca Film has a great article on their site discussing how the independent film industry is taking a cue from the music business. According to Chris Dorr's article, the days of the distribution industry are over. This digital consultant predicts that artists can make more profit from their work by marketing themselves through various social networks and self-distribution online. Take a look at Tribecafilm.com to see his full article.
Do you agree with Chris Dorr? Do you think that the distribution industry has it's place along side of the dinosaur?
