- After getting his first movie distributed by Warner Bros. -- a feat without name cast -- producer Jerome Courshon began writing articles for film magazines about his journey from navigating film festivals to navigating the challenging, mine-laden field of film distribution.
This eventually led to Courshon giving some evening lectures to filmmakers on distribution, which then turned into a 1 Day class, eventually turning into a 2 Day class, and finally becoming a "3-Day Distribution School" -- which was an 18-Hour course for Producers & Directors entitled "The Secrets to Film Distribution." This Program taught the A-Z of what one really needed to know to have success in Distribution with their movies & documentaries, as well as to protect oneself against unscrupulous distributors. Courshon spent 15 years educating (2007 - 2022), along with his distribution consulting services offered.
In 2022, Courshon launched Lion Heart Distribution. As the CEO, he serves and provides an ethical option for Producers & Directors to have distribution AND success in the Domestic marketplace (U.S. & Canada) with their movies. How content is viewed & consumed by the public today has gone through major changes -- from before, during and since the pandemic -- making it even more of a challenge today to monetize one's independent film. But it can still be done with the right distributor, the right strategies employed, and a healthy dose of diligence and effort.
Courshon is interviewed on a few podcasts each year about the state of Distribution, you can find them plus more info at LionHeart.LA
