Wouter Jansen startet his festivals strategy agency Some Shorts in 2013, which re-branded itself as Square Eyes earlier this year. Through his years of experience as a programmer at film festivals (e.g. the Oscar-qualifying Go Short International Short Film Festival Nijmegen) he noticed that there are more and more strong films, that don’t find international distribution. With his agency Wouter tries to support both upcoming talents and more established film makers, and promote their films internationally. Festivals and non-commercial screenings can help these films find their audiences, get exposure and an international career. In this episode Wouter is talking about his work and his experience with festival strategies. He provides one or the other tip for a meaningful festival strategy for your own short.
