FAQ
Why is it that so few independent films are ever released?
Indie filmmakers tend to assume that distributors will buy their films.
They are certain distributors will take their films, as they know that the public will love them.
However, this is seldom the case. Distributors often benefit from independent filmmakers.
They employ tactics like delaying a movie's release until after awards season has ended.
They may delay the release of a low budget film until after summer blockbuster season begins.
Distributors also try to keep films away from audiences until they've already spent hundreds of dollars on tickets, popcorn, or candy.
They don’t want to miss out on these profits.
How much of the box office revenue goes to marketing budgets
Marketing budgets often account for 20%-40% of the film's budget. This is because marketing is critical to the success and longevity of any film.
Without good marketing, no one knows about your film. It is impossible to get people to pay for your film without knowing all about it.
Is Hollywood making more from international sales than domestic?
Yes, but only slightly. Around 17% of total revenue came from foreign sources in 2017. Domestic revenues accounted to 83%.
More than half of the world’s population lives in foreign markets.
This means that people who may never have the chance to see a movie at home might still be curious about your movie.

How To
How to get your star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce founded the Hollywood Walk of Fame, HWOF (Hollywood Walk of Fame) in 1960. The HWOF can be found at 6233 Hollywood Boulevard, Los Angeles, California. It's made up of 2,711 stars, which are embedded in the sidewalk on Hollywood Boulevard. Each star represents an individual who contributed to popular culture, such as television, radio or theater. There are currently 1,922 living persons listed on the HWOF.
You will need to submit your application to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce in order to be considered for membership to the HWOF. Once submitted, your name will be sent to the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. Once approved, you receive a certificate of eligibility, which includes your name, date of birth, city of residence, occupation, and category. A bronze plaque with your name inscribed on it is also included. This plaque is attached directly to the concrete base, in front of designated stars.
You may apply to be a star if you are nominated by a HWOF member or if you make significant contributions to television, radio, TV, theatre, music or other forms of "popular culture". The nominations are evaluated by a committee, which then decides whether or not to approve them. If they do, they will send a letter explaining their decision to the applicant at his/her home address. If the person accepts, they will be sent a second letter to confirm their acceptance. The Hollywood Chamber of commerce will then pay $25. This money is forwarded to the Department of Cultural Affairs of Los Angeles.
The department issues a check payable to the Hollywood Chamber of commerce, which sends the check to the Hollywood Walk of Fame Foundation. The foundation pays artists or organizations whose applications were accepted. The artist or organization then pays the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce half the fee ($12.50). The City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs gets the rest.
Once the artist receives his/her star he/she will be eligible to be inducted into the HWOF. To be eligible to list on the HWOF you will need to pay the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce all outstanding balance. The amount due depends upon how many years ago your first nomination was. You would owe $15,000. If you were first Nominated in 1990, for example. You'd owe $10,000 if you were previously nominated in 1990.
You will need to contact Hollywood Chamber of Commerce in order to be removed from the HWOF. They will remove the name of your from the list.
How old do you have to be in order to receive a star on HWOF?
To be nominated, one must be at least 18 years. A person must be present at the time of receiving a star. One can still be nominated after receiving a star after ten years.
What happens if I die before my star gets put up?
Nominating you can be done by family members. The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce will place an honorary marker in front of the star if there are no living relatives.
Why not use a new street, instead of staring at everyone?
The HWOF isn't meant to be an historical monument. It is meant to honor those who contributed to film history.
What happened to the stolen stars? Around 1,200 stars were taken by the thieves. Each star weighs approximately 250-300 pounds, which equates to 4 tons of stars.
