WELCOME TO WINTER PALACE FILMS...


   

Who We Are

Winter Palace Films is a Boutique Entertainment and Consultatory Company offering a full range of services to Film Festivals, Distribution Companies, Screenwriters and Filmmakers around the world.  Our "Mission" is to promote the Independent Film Initiative by continually supporting the Independent Filmmaker, the Documentary Filmmaker, and Screenwriter with expert guidance for film and screenplay advertising, marketing, positioning and content, and also by inspiring and creating new and innovative venues for Film Distribution and film goers.  We specialize in Mainstreaming the unique and fledgling Film Festivals as well as undertake Film and Television Advertising to Market for Distribution, offer consultatory services for positioning your project in the film market, Film Financing as well as Distribution and Television Packaging, and Film and Script Consulting... and are especially geared toward New Writers and First-time Filmmakers.

In addition to our Producing and Consulting services for Film Festivals and Filmmakers, Winter Palace Films also is a Producer of Advertising for Marketing Film and Television Distribution, cleverly coined a PAMFTD or PAMD as shortened by popular demand, and often referred to as the "Pammy."  The term represents a specialized producer whose primary responsibilities are creating and producing the advertising and managing the marketing to assist with gaining distribution, and guiding public relations of an independent or documentary film starting at pre-production or in screenplay format even prior to a finished script and continuing through the actual production process, obligations normally shouldered by a studio when establishing their film within the marketplace.

We do not do the same job as a producers representative or sales agent, but instead we offer a more hands-on consultatory involvement for filmmakers and screenwriters who are too unknown or inexperienced or just want assistance to attract the attention of an agency or distributor.  Often times filmmakers' films and screenwriters' screenplays are deemed "unsolicited" hindering their marketing or distribution, and the filmmaker or screenwriter sees no alternative for establishing their place in the film world.  Winter Palace Films takes on these submissions that are "unsolicited films and screenplays" giving them and the filmmaker a face and position in the film-market.  Please check out The Producer of Advertising and Marketing for Distribution services.  More...

A Unique Identity For Your Festival

With thousands of film festivals entering the market competing for entertainment industry, public and media attention, it is imperative each event fosters its distinct identity.  Winter Palace Films works on a personal basis with each client directing focus on their festival’s mission, strengthen programming and develop distinct strategies exploiting the festival’s full potential.

If you are starting a new film festival, Winter Palace Films with its collective festival expertise, offers a varied range of support necessary for your new event to achieve complete success. We offer both a complete package or consultation and services for special interest areas to your festival.

Winter Palace Films provides individualized services to studios, distributors and filmmakers seeking guidance and support in developing festival, market and distribution strategies.  We also assist clients in servicing film festival requests, and offering insight on marketing and release campaigns.

Winter Palace Films offers clients a comprehensive overview of current and upcoming festival films.  We also offer our clients the option of developing specialized programs in a myriad of themes and genres.  Please check out The Film Festival options.  More...



Filmmakers

Let's say you’re prepping your film… or you’re shooting your film… or you’ve finished your film… and you want it seen!  But, have you done everything…or have you done anything needed to ensure its eventual success?  Do you have representation, or do you know if you have the right representation to introduce your film to the world?  Do you have all of the required distribution deliverables and documentation?  Do you have the right images, publicity and key art?  Do you even know what those deliverables, documentation, and images are?  Do you know which festivals, markets, sales agents or distributors are most appropriate for your film?  Do you know anything at all about how to gain notoriety for you or your film?  More...

Screenwriters

Can we please “take a meeting” about my script?  And what is coverage, anyway?  Winter Palace Films is designed to help you present and sell a story that is as strong as possible.  When covering your script we will also troubleshoot, it will be supported with constructive comments much like new drafts of works in actual development.  You will have assurance of your script's professional style and appearance.  Analysis will be given to your entire script rather than finding immediate fault and giving the rest of it a failing write-up.  After all, our mission is to inspire your success.  More...
