To distribute our film, we plan to find an independent distributor. This can be done through premiering A Not-So-Merry Christmas at an upcoming film festival to find potential distribution companies. We are most likely going to agree to a profit-sharing model, where the distributor would get a percentage of the total profits made from the film. We expect that the distributor receive around 25 percent of the profits, although this can be negotiated between 10 and 50 percent. The distribution company that decides to use our film would likely present screenings to potential buyers, where they can negotiate their percentage of shares from box office ticket sales. As soon as the film is premiered at the festival we expect our film to be distributed to at least 400 theaters, and up to at least 500 the following week. 60 days after the release of our film the distributor is expected to make A Not-So-Merry Christmas available for rental or purchase on iTunes, Amazon, Redbox, and YouTube, in addition to releasing it on Netflix. By 90 days we plan to distribute the film through Blu-Ray Disc and DVD for home media, as well as release the film to theaters internationally in Ireland and the United Kingdom.

The fourth shot listed is a wide shot of the Easter Bunny entering the conference room and slowly walking out after listening to the commotion. This shot attempts to incorporate humor by providing relief to the tension after addressing Santa Claus's wrongdoings, which could be s...
