This week I spoke to Delphine Lievens, who I was introduced to via Grace Barber-Plentie, of episode two fame. Both Delphine and Grace worked at Altitude Film Distribution and now Delphine works in box office analytics.
We had a really lovely chat about a whole side of film I haven’t really touched on in the pod before, from data and how that can inform when a film is released, to trends in cinema and why a film might under-perform at the box office. Delphine speaks really eloquently and knowledgeably about the theatrical release landscape and it was a real insight and joy to sit down with her.
