Ace in Association with Screen Training Ireland present:
'Inter Viewing’: Who has the Rights?

More and more film producers are connecting directly with their audiences by releasing their own films and thus bypassing the traditional gatekeepers of the industry. Similarly, audiences are now far more active in their pursuit of content and in their method of viewing this content. This ‘do-it-yourselves’ mode of film distribution in what has become a consumer-led, multi-platform environment, poses many interesting questions. This half day session, made up of an in-depth case study and panel discussion, will address a number of the issues raised by what has become known as ‘netribution.’
