A filmmaker-first release strategy with real partnership behind it.
Antenna exists to help films reach audiences without losing the trust, clarity, and care that should be part of the process. We work with filmmakers closely, build plans around the specific film, and stay honest about what's worth doing.
Just need Festival Consulting or Sales Representation?
First and foremost, we are filmmakers.
We know how much time, money, compromise, labor, and belief it takes to finish a film. That experience shapes how we communicate, how we structure deals, and how we think about the long-term health of every release we take on.
The principles behind the way we release films.
Transparent economics
No hidden fees, no vague accounting, no smoke around where the money goes. We keep the business side understandable so you can make smart decisions with us.
Focused attention
We keep our slate intentionally small. Your film is not entering a crowded warehouse of titles competing for the same bandwidth and release energy.
Right-sized timelines
We don't believe in locking films up longer than necessary. Our job is to create momentum, build value, and move with purpose instead of trapping you in a long hold.
What working together actually looks like.
The goal is simple: make the release make sense for the film, keep communication open, and move with intention from strategy through execution.
We align on the film and the goal
Before anything launches, we get specific about what the film is, who it is for, and what success should look like for this release.
We build the release around the film
Theatrical, festival strategy, physical media, audience development, positioning, and materials all get shaped around the actual project instead of a one-size-fits-all template.
We stay in close conversation
You should never feel like your distributor vanished. We stay collaborative throughout the campaign so the filmmaker isn't left guessing what's happening.
We protect long-term value
Every release choice should help the film now without damaging what it can still become later. We think about the arc, not just the opening move.
Support built around the release, not around a template.
Some films need a full distribution partner. Others need strategic help at a specific stage. We can shape the relationship around the actual needs of the project.
Focused support at any stage of your release.
Not every filmmaker needs a full distribution partner. Sometimes you need strategy, representation, or a clear read on where your film fits. These are our standalone offerings.
Festival Consulting
Need help finding the right launch path? We help filmmakers evaluate festival fit, positioning, and timing with a strategy that matches the film's identity.
Sales Representation
For completed films seeking a market-facing partner, we shape the pitch, presentation, and plan so buyers see the film clearly and seriously.
