How much do you charge to screen your documentary?

12 years, 1 month ago - Betty Martins

I have been self distributing my latest documentary "I wasn't always dressed like this", making presentations in international conferences and forums. Now I have been receiving invitations for screenings, and talks Q&A, at some places.
My short is around 33 minutes in length, I wonder if there is a standard rate for public screenings, and how much it is. How does this normally works?

Also, few educational institutions wants to acquire the film, is there a standard rate for this as well?

I appreciate any advice you can give,

Thank you.

Wow! Congratulations for having requests for paid screenings! That's a huge step.

I'd suggest you find an agent to handle your bookings if you are making real money from this, it's entirely what they do.
