Report: Distributing films online: The Farm Group, London, 27 April 2017
Report of a workshop which brought together nine academics and nine industry professionals from UK universities and film companies to discuss the changing nature of distribution. The workshop focused on capturing the perspective of producers, distributors and VOD platform providers who operate at the specialist, indie end of the UK market. We explored the challenges and opportunities that this range of different actors currently face in terms of enabling film access in the online market and reaching UK audiences. The workshop was organised as part of a research scoping project supported by the University of York, which focused on examining how on-demand culture influenced the businesses of films and high-end television drama.

Abstract
Report of a workshop which brought together nine academics and nine industry professionals from UK universities and film companies to discuss the changing nature of distribution. The workshop focused on capturing the perspective of producers, distributors and VOD platform providers who operate at the specialist, indie end of the UK market. We explored the challenges and opportunities that this range of different actors currently face in terms of enabling film access in the online market and reaching UK audiences. The workshop was organised as part of a research scoping project supported by the University of York, which focused on examining how on-demand culture influenced the businesses of films and high-end television drama.
