Freestyle Releasing

Freestyle Releasing is an for-hire independent film distributor founded in 2004, specializing in releasing films theatrically. Unlike most distributors, Freestyle Releasing does not put up any prints and advertising money for its releases.
Freestyle has a service distribution deal with Jeff Clanagan for a line of African-American movies called Code Black.
==History==
Freestyle Releasing was founded in 2004 by Susan Jackson, Mark Borde and Mike Doban, formerly at UA Theatres. By January 2006, Jackson started Freestyle Home Entertainment, her wholly owned DVD label, as an adjunct for additional leeway in its deal making. The company booked Winter Passing and Find Me Guilty for Yari Film Group in 2006. Jackson and Borde in 2010 formed Freestyle Digital Media, a film aggregator for the video on demand market.
By May 2011, Doban left to be chief operating officer at Sycamore Entertainment Group, a film prints and advertising (P&A) financing firm. Jackson died in October 2014. In October 2015 Byron Allen's Entertainment Studios acquired Freestyle for an undisclosed amount "said to be sealed for high-eight figures".
Entertainment Studios was sold to Joe Roth and Freestyle merged with Revolution Studios and Hannover House Films to form Styhon Partners Entertainment.
