Non-fiction feature producer C. Rich Wilson has devoted his career to the development of start-up ventures in entertainment and high technology. His first two films, Step Into Liquid and Dust to Glory garnered critical acclaim and rank among the highest grossing theatrical documentaries of all time!
Rich launched Apostrophe Films in 2005 with filmmaker Dana Brown after their first collaboration, the genre-busting hit surfer documentary Step Into Liquid, brought in an estimated $15 million worldwide, with Rich at the helm of the financing, marketing and distribution efforts. His innovative production and financing model utilized new production technologies and forged partnerships with brands like Microsoft, Vans, Quicksilver, Redbull, Honda, and Kodak as well as major studios in New York and Los Angeles.
Come network with your San Diego filmmaking peers from 6-7 PM, then hang ten with Mr. Wilson to learn all about making, distributing and promoting successful, high-octane action documentaries!
Don't forget to bring your business cards and head shots! And please be sure to tell everyone you know in the San Diego filmmaking community about this exciting, free event.
