Variety Insight 4 Weeks Complimentary Access
From Variety Insight: We are tracking all of the productions, releases, festivals, and awards that have been impacted by COVID-19. We are continuing our primary research to ensure that we’re on top of any new projects being put into development, projects moving from theatrical to SVOD, new TV and streaming series, as well as our usual updates to company rosters and talent representation.
We are also cognizant of the fact that many of our colleagues whose livelihoods are directly linked to physical production are suffering during this time. To help ease the strain, we are offering four weeks of complimentary access to anyone in the industry whose primary business is directly linked to physical production. We hope this offer will help those looking for work better prepare for when production resumes. For more details please call our customer support line (323-617-9555) or email support@varietyinsight.com.
