Self Distribution with Reelhouse.org

So now that Chill.com is shutting down, I need to find another platform to move my film Bang Bang. I think I found a great Home. It is called reelhouse.org, and what they offer is a better deal than chill.com. I just signed up so I don't have all the information to write a review, but from what I understand, they are offering a 94% cut to the filmmaker. This is great because chill was only offering 70%.

Their website and platform looks very aesthetically pleasing, and easy to use. They also have partnered with Warner Bros. to offer more than just indie films to their viewers. I think this is a great business model and it achieves where Chill and Dynamo player could not. This integration of bigger films along with indie-direct-to-audience films is a good idea because it allows for crossover audiences.

Here is a link from PBS which gives an overview of the DIY platforms (Where I found out about Reelhouse)

I'll update y'all once I've launched my film and perhaps write a review on my experience with them.

Thanks for reading! Connect with me below!
