VOD With Wendy Bernfeld. IDFA Industry Talk 19 November 2016

IDFA Podcast

Wendy Bernfeld gives an updated overview of the evolving opportunities in video-on-demand, both in general and specifically for the documentary sector. Different VOD platforms (tvod, svod, advod, etc.) and various middlemen/aggregators are at the table: they can be subsidized or commercial, and involve a variety of business models and regions. Many buy and some even fund. How do they work, and how can you, as a filmmaker or producer, benefit from them? Bernfeld, founder and managing director of international content consultancy Rights Stuff, provides an overview of these opportunities and various angles around creating windowing and "hybrid" distribution possibilities.
