Film Distributor - Early Distribution Windows

Early Distribution Windows

Although there are numerous distribution techniques today, previous to the multi-channel transition, studios and networks did not experiment with different distribution processes.

The studios revenue was gained from myriad distribution windows. These windows created many opportunities in the industry and allowed networks to make a profit and eliminate failure.

    when I’m finally adjusted on safe land,
    and am livable, joist to joist
    with storm windows and screens ...
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
