Screening Room
With more and more films embracing digital distribution - and the average cinema experience getting less capable of surpassing the chimp screening room experience - it's not surprising that YouTube is starting to seem like a good way to promote films.
With Wayne Wang releasing two films this year, one of which - The Princess Of Nebraska - is premiering at You Tube's Screening Room, a site which is already hosting a range of longer-format films. The plan is that the exposure from that will drive punters to the cinema to see Wang's other film, A Thousand Years of Good Prayers.
The Princess of Nebraska premieres on You Tube on October 17th. More details at Variety.
