OUR TEAM
For over 20 years, THE PR FACTORY has helped films, festivals and a wide range of acting, directing and related film talent find their audiences through free publicity, social media management, cross-media promotion, traditional marketing campaigns and event organization both in its home market, the Benelux countries – Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg – and at all major film festivals.
Our international publicists have built a reputation of excellence in devising and executing successful worldwide publicity campaigns on all platforms.
They are passionate and dedicated about the people and the films they represent, and when it is appropriate and possible, they let their creativity run free to create the most impressive and cost-effective publicity stunts.
Today, our experts share their knowledge and experience in recognized international workshops organized by EAVE, EUROPA DISTRIBUTION and various European film institutes.
