ABOUT
Each year, Warren Miller Entertainment (WME) and Outside Inc. produce a feature-length ski and snowboarding film. As “The Official Start of Winter”, we are excited to showcase new locations, new skiers, new music, and new filmmakers for the 77th Warren Miller film. We’re excited to launch into the future while collaborating with up-and-coming filmmakers as well as our tried and true filmmaking team here at WME.
WHAT
Our current program only supports presentations of our latest production. Older films are not currently licensable but we are working on making more of our classic content available.
WHEN
The film will be available for Independent Promoters after October 21, 2026. (For North American I.P. shows only. International availability varies by location).
HOW
Warren Miller Entertainment will provide promotional materials, including posters, flyers, press kits, photos, etc. You select the venue, place the advertising, gather sponsors, sell the tickets and run the show. WME is available for consultation but the arrangements and presentation are up to you! (More notes in the Help section below)
FORMAT
BluRay or DCP (We are currently researching ways to provide digital delivery however due to security concerns and quality of playback, we are offering BluRay as our only disc format.).
COST
Upfront guarantee (with a deposit) versus a percentage of Gross Ticket Sales, whichever is greater. We customize our contract costs based on your show’s details. In order to give you a quote, we need to know the following: Show location, seating capacity, type of screening (public or private), number of showings, and ticket price. These details will give us a more accurate look at our upfront costs so we know what it will take to cover your show.
WHY
Great fundraiser and marketing tool for your community, company, organization or group; or just a good way to make some money doing something unique and fun!
