Publicity -- News & Reviews for Indie Films

Since my 22 minute production is complete, I entered it into withoutabox.com to register it for the NYTVF. I left the section for news and reviews for publicity blank.

Any ideas of how to get news and reviews for indie films?

Thank you for the suggestions guys.

Steve,

In order to turn a 40 minute production into a 22 minute production, scenes had to be removed, shortened, and combined.

I still want to complete the 40 minute version when funds become available. There are unfinished scenes in that version. Besides 2 more shooting days to finish a fight scene that was only started, I need to make a rocket attack by the silver demon hunters against the cyborgs look more convincing. I took the best pieces of that and combined it with another fight scene for the 22 minute version.

Also, I need a big 3D animated scene of Andromeda vs the silver demon hunter mother ship in space battle for the 40 minute version. This battle is not in the 22 minute version.

The film composer gave the 22 minute production the same criticism Fox TV gave Josh Friedman about his Terminator TV series, "dumb it down." Just like Josh, I'm not. I'm too much of a fan of science fiction classics.

She thought the costumes cost a fortune. She liked the costumes. A SFx guy elsewhere though I broke the bank with the costumes too, until I explained to both I had the costumes made in China and saved a bundle.

if you need help with anything Mike, let me know. I work nights here in the UK so i'll be happy to give a few of your local media outlets a call on your behalf. Could even email a few review websites or have a sift through youtube fx reels for ya.

All the best

Getting indie FEATURE films reviewed is a difficult task. Reviewers already have piles of DVDs on the floor that they will never get to. You have a short. I'm sorry to say it'll be even much more difficult to get someone to watch it for review purposes.

true, this is where i think his local media would come in handy to build his publicity. I dont live in ny but i can only imagine how many small radio stations or newspapers would be interested in it

NY is a large city that caters to the rich and the powerful.

There are much smaller newspapers I may consider. What GuerrillaAngel said would hold true if I tried to send it to the NY Times or NY Post.

However, the Queens Ledger may be a different ball of wax.

I did get a PM already by someone interested in reviewing it.
