The Value of Behind the Scenes Content

This talk aims to provide a fresh perspective on the Behind the Scenes genre and the benefits it can offer when done well.

The main questions that will be covered include:

How can quality BTS content benefit a film?
What factors make great BTS content?
What does the current landscape of the industry look like?
How can raising the bar benefit the film industry as a whole?
How does this apply in the indie space?

He has a strong dedication to researching and studying the niche, which has included learning directly from some of the top BTS producers around the world. Through this talk, he aims to present his findings in a way that will inspire growth across the industry.
