I wonder if it's possible to sell only your theatrical rights?
I know that it's possible but I don't know how common it is.. (for indie films)?
Theatrical is my main concern because with VOD and DVD-on-demand services it's lot easier for me to distribute through there..
And I also wonder what are the release-date restrictions if you sell your theatrical rights..
Would you be free to release your film on VOD when you want or you should wait for the theatrical release (or I don't know what)
(I heard that Magnolia Pictures release first on VOD and then on theatrical - to give an example)
I know that every situation is different - I just want to know what is the common way (what I am dealing with)..
Thanks,
