Event Overview
STUPID CO returns with the seventh edition of Stupid Chats, continuing its monthly series dedicated to demystifying film distribution and the realities of independent filmmaking.
This session, Post-Post Production, focuses on a critical but often overlooked question:
What does it actually mean to finish a film for distribution?
Beyond post-production, filmmakers face decisions around delivery, strategy, and release—this roundtable opens up that conversation with real-world insight from working professionals.
Hosted live from BetaWave Studios in Los Angeles, the session invites filmmakers, artists, and industry professionals into a candid, interactive discussion on how films move from “done” to “seen.”
