A Bug’s Life: The Delusion of Distribution w/ Justin Hunt

A fantastic panel from ScorpiusFest, called “A Bug’s Life: The Delusion of Distribution” with award-winning filmmaker Justin Hunt.It hit right at the intersection of two things I love talking about film and software.Justin from his own experiences describes the modern distribution machine: how the marketplace actually works, the traps filmmakers fall into, and how to get your film distributed without getting ripped off.One of the most interesting parts of the conversation was his breakdown of platforms like FilmHub and how they can empower filmmakers to take more control of their distribution. The technology powering the FilmHub platform provides real insights for filmmakers on how well their film is doing across platforms. Instead of waiting for the traditional gatekeepers, tools like this are shifting power back toward creators who understand the system and know how to navigate it.For independent filmmakers, understanding distribution is just as important as making the film itself and panels like this are a reminder that the business side of filmmaking is evolving just as fast as the creative side.Huge thanks to Justin for sharing real insight into a part of the industry that too often feels opaque.#ScorpiusFest #FilmDistribution #IndependentFilm #Filmmaking #IndieFilm #FilmHub #FilmFestival #ColoradoFilm #FilmIndustry #IndieFilmmaker
