Life at A&AE
Adler & Associates Entertainment is a full-service media company that creates, produces, acquires, sells and distributes audio/visual content around the globe. We bridge the gap between writers, storytellers, artists, entertainers, filmmakers, technologists, distributors and/or all major networks.
From script development through the final stages of post-production, our experienced production company team will work with you by integrating each phase of the process, making sure that your script, schedule and budget are compatible. We bring together the most creative artists and the most qualified technicians, making sure that all the elements of the production come together while planning and executing the complex daily process that is a film shoot. Our team will also help you navigate the intricate world of post-production and make sure that your film is finished on schedule and on budget, clearing the way for worldwide distribution of your production.
Licensing
As a Sales Agency, A&AE works to sell your movie in all territories and platforms worldwide. We have built solid relationships with the finest film distributors and television broadcasters in Canada, the USA and throughout the rest of the world. We remain in constant contact with our buyers by attending or exhibiting at film and TV markets such as AFM, NATPE, Berlin Film Festival, MIP-TV, Cannes Film Festival, NATPE, TIFF (Toronto), FILMART (Hong Kong), TIFF (Tokyo) and MIPCOM.
Sales
Adler & Associates Entertainment is an international sales agency with a reputation of selling niche genre media around the globe. We encompass some of the most talented and diverse agents in the world with a vast expertise in marketing and sales. Our main focus is to maximize revenue for our clients through DVD, Video on Demand, pay television and free television sales by utilizing a truly global sales strategy that distributes films not only in the well-established markets of North America and Europe, but also in the fast-growing emerging markets of Asia, Africa and Latin America, making A&AE content available in nearly two hundred countries worldwide.
Distribution
Adler & Associates Entertainment distributes its clients’ films to all mediums. From television, home video and new media to airlines, cruise ships and hotels. Our distribution services include an extensive relationship with every major video-demand platform worldwide, including Netflix, Hulu, iTunes, Amazon Prime, Hoopla and Roku. Acting in collaboration with our international sales and licensing division, we map out a distribution strategy to maximize revenue, making sure your film is released first through venues and territories that will maximize revenue and drive further sales in ancillary mediums down the road.
Sales agents acquire a set of rights from you, create marketing materials, pitch and sell the rights to distributors, draft distribution agreements, deliver the physical and electronic materials of your film to the distributors, and collect and pay the revenue due to you. We will be your partner for years, helping to craft the commercial life of your film on the world stage.
Whereas a “domestic sales agent” only works domestically, usually for a short term and often selling to only one distributor, A&AE is a partner whose time, money and talent is used to brand you to the marketplace in all countries of the world via all media — theatrical, video, VOD, TV and other ancillary media.
Internationally we work as your films distributor and license it to buyers or territory distributors. They acquire the rights to exhibit your film within their country or several different countries.
