Murder In The Front Row
Launch and amplify an indie documentary to reach and resonate with metal fans across the US
Launch a metal documentary completely independently
Director Adam Dubin chronicled the ‘80s Bay Area thrash scene, including over 50 interviews with metal stalwarts. He sought to share his documentary with as many viewers and critics as possible across the US without a distribution partner.
All-inclusive efforts towards praise and packed screenings
The Syn created and executed a 360 plan across owned, earned, and paid channels including the film’s website (ticketing, merchandise, press), marketing, PR, social media, premiere screening, and consulting surrounding Murder In The Front Row’s national theater tour.
