Article Comment – Why I Chose Amazon Video Direct to Self-Distribute My Film

Hi Michael, do you mind getting in touch with me offline? Would like to chat more with you about this. Yes, I've reached out to transfer houses, but the film insurance and shipping costs alone were prohibitive. And it was only 1080p at the time. And I don't want to transfer anything less than full frame 4K (or more). I'm totally prepared to re-colorcorrect the film - infact, I'm attending Dado Valentic's color correction course for the next four days at mewshop. Anyways, would love to chat more in depth. My email is kamkol dot productions at gmail

Article Comment – Why I Chose Amazon Video Direct to Self-Distribute My Film

Agreed. No platform can really bring an audience to bear unless you've been acquired by them or are high-profile enough that you pass their curation tests. There may be other ways amazon opens up that window - whether via payment, or via better related-ness algorithms, but that's to be seen. In the meantime, if the film can't acquire organic hits from your own marketing/word-of-mouth, then there's no option but to do an advertising campaign. Again, def not a revenue play unless you have the content that'll support such a goal, but it's a great way to experiment with this platform and learn/setup for your next projects. It's a powerful tool, this.

So after waiting almost a month while youtube kept my video in a non-monetizable state for a copyright claim (automated based on music signature), and chasing down the claimant to have them release it, "Indian Cowboy" is now up on youtube as well!

Finally, I'll have a way to compare revenue between youtube and amazon prime. I'll post a note here too, but for those who want to, feel free to follow on facebook.com/indiancowboy or on twitter @indiancowboy

The youtube link for the full movie is https://youtu.be/Tt1BDcTkXYU

Feel free to ping me with any q's!
