Film Sales Estimates/Ask & Take Schedule

Each film is different and unique!

When you are licensing your film to a distributor, you have to keep in mind that you are dealing with a sophisticated buyer who knows his market and the potential or the limitation of any title he might be interested in.

Distributors take in consideration the following when making an offer, does the film have name actors or not, is it a theatrical title, straight to DVD, TV movie, the genre, the ratings, the performance of the actors, the direction, the production quality, design, cinematography, wardrobe, sound, music, and locations.

Based on the above they can approximately tell what the budget of the film is, you cannot fool them.

To prepare accurate sales estimates for a movie, we call it the Ask & Take Schedule you must possess the experience in dealing with distributors from around the world, be well aware of their market changes, their country's economic and political situation, piracy and the success or failures of similar titles released in that territory.
