Panel, 45 min
This kick-off panel for NYTVF's fifth annual Digital Day will focus on the initial development process for individual series and multi-series slates with an eye toward digital distribution and audience development. Is success more attainable for those with a platform agnostic approach or those who have committed to a singular distributor? Where do successful creators start → Passion? Brand? Platform? Audience? Finally, to launch a series and get paid, what is the most recommended approach: a thought-out series pitch, complete with scripts and bible? A well-produced pilot that introduces the world? Or a first season in the bag with a devoted audience and tangible numbers? Join the panel of digital studio founders, content curators and distribution decision-makers for an insightful discussion on development and keys to getting off on the right foot. Read More
