Network Based Distribution, Marketing and  Business Development Services

To be the best at promoting the distribution and consumption of independent films and alternative media through the use of DVD or better, PPV enabled streaming video and web related technologies.


The first things we do is provide filmmakers access to the highest quality , streaming video, PPV enabled video broadcast technology to stream their films. The PPV movie and broadcast platform we provide is a self contained web based application that provides functionality for managing your digital distribution and filmmaking business.

1. Username and Password protected website.

2. Fully integrated with PayPal for PPV.

3. Portable PPV capability to support filmmakers self initiated marketing and distribution efforts. You can simply ask for a PPV link placement.

3. Tracking reports to measure PPV and marketing activities and PPV link placement performance. You can track sales between different websites you have placed a link on.

4. Ability to iinstantly email projects in progress. (This is how our co-founder Anthony DellaFlora is soliciting investment for a documentary on Antoine Predock .

5. Digital Rights Management tools to control users access to your film.

6. Channel assignment, management and reporting to help create affiliate programs so that others can sell your film from their website.

7. Guaranteed video storage for disaster recovery.

Filmmakers can't ever be completely independent without the basic tools and knowledge to exercise distribution self determination.  We want to help you get your work seen as widely as possible and profit from your work.

Profitable PPV movie distribution will not be the result of getting your movie on a website with 100,00 other films (you know who I mean). Rather successful and profitable PPV movie distribution will be the result of making your film available on topically related niche sites built around a micro-community of users who have an expressed interest in the subject matter of your film. The objective is to help you get your film in front of a targeted audience.

In support of this we provide on going marketing support as your marketing partner.

1. "Definitive Guide to PPV Movie Marketing for Filmmakers": We understand that filmmakers are artists and likely have little if any exposure to the world of marketing on the internet.  This soon to be released e-book will start at the very basics and will help you find, market and sell your films  target audience as well as how to retain and build a larger audience over time.

2. Our Own Distribution Website and Network: We are currently developing our own distribution portal that will be available at no charge and will follow on with additional niche websites as needed. Each website will be:

* Easy to use and advertising free experience for viewers.

* Ability for viewers to socially bookmark your film.

* A filmmaker profile a profile with links to your Blog, website, IMDB listing and your mailing list so fans can become a permanent part of your audience.

3. Access to The Filmmakers Channel Nation: The only thing better then selling your film on one website is to have it available on 2, or 3 more websites. The Filmmakers Channel Nation is a members only directory of other filmmakers and entrepreneurs who are willing to accept other films and/or have films available for distribution.

4. Acting as a Proxy: We are always trying to help and you may even find us taking the initiative by contacting a website owner and inquiring on your behalf as to their receptivity to placing a PPV link on their site. We hope you won't mind.

Perhaps you have an interest in a particular niche you'd like to build a channel around. We will build your network channel website platform for your topic using social networking technology, help you establish and market it and provide access to other films on the Filmmakers Channel Network. We recently had an inquiry from a customer in Santa Fe, who has asked us to help him develop a channel he is calling "The Chanting Channel". This channel is all about providing instruction to students of meditation to help them develop better chanting skills. This is really the epitome of  "Riches in the Niches" and its a networked distribution business in a box.

A very specialized breed of channel is a membership channel. A membership channel is the next wave in distribution beyond PPV. It really isn't a new business model it is exactly the type of business model that Netflix uses. The difference is the our membership sites will be built around very specific niche topics, such as The Martial Arts Channel. These sites will still use social networking capability but rather then charge per video, the charge will be a monthly charge for access to a library of videos.

Regardless if you are an individual filmmaker, or you market other types of video content on DVD, or if you are an entrepreneur interested in supporting your own network and developing an income helping other, we can help you meet your goals.

1. Best in class DVD quality streaming.

2. Pre-integrated  PPV secure credit card transactions.

3. Ongoing Marketing support: Networking support and access to The Filmmakers Channel Nation

4. Personal broadcast channel website development.

5. Network channel website development.
