The Art of the SIZZLE REEL: How to Sell your Film with a Sizzle
Editor, Director, Producer
Corey Frost
Â
Corey created a sizzle reel for our dystopian feature film that quickly generated major attention for both the project and our team. His ability to capture story, tone, and marketability in just a few minutes is exceptional—so we knew we had to bring his talent and insight to this Power Hour.
Join us as we break down how sizzle reels can elevate both narrative and documentary projects, what truly makes a sizzle reel work, the most common mistakes filmmakers make, and how to develop a sizzle that serves your film. Corey will also explore the powerful intersection of music, editing, marketing, and storytelling—packed into one compelling short piece.
Corey is a true master of the craft, and we can’t wait to share his expertise with you.
