Prelude2Cinema is a global company based in Northeast Ohio that is dedicated to transforming starving artists into sustainable working artists. They believe that artists need to become brands and connect with their audience in order to survive. Prelude2Cinema provides creative business tools and a crowdfunding platform that allows artists to make their art their day job.

Not only do they support artists, but they also grow their own creative brand of bold and diverse movies. They help other artists become brands as well and enable them to earn revenue through screenings, licensing, and merchandise associated with their new brands. In addition, Prelude2Cinema has created the online community BlockCityP2C, where fans can shop their favorite brands while supporting aspiring and up-and-coming artists.

They have partnered with organizations such as JumpStart, Key Bank, the City of Cleveland, and the Cleveland Foundation to make BlockCityP2C a reality. Prelude2Cinema is not limited to filmmakers; they are open to helping other artists and brands reach their fans and support their art. The online community serves as a platform for discussions, opinions, and learning about the industry.

Join Prelude2Cinema as they move outside their backyard to brand filmmakers from all over the world. Artists, brands, and fans come together in the equation: ARTISTS + BRANDS + FANS = Prelude2Cinema
