The world is changing for independent filmmakers. New Deal Television was born out of a desire to help independent creators get their work seen and their voices heard. Less gatekeepers make for a greater direct distribution deal.

 Now what? You've done a few film festivals and you wonder what's next. Maybe you made it in the wrong format or made it with the wrong camera and now Netflix doesn't care or doesn't want it. You're having a hard time getting anyone to pay attention to it for one reason or another. If someone is interested in it, they are going to take all of your money and still not do anything to help you get people to watch it. 

 Sadly, most people that take the time and spend the money to make a short, a feature, or a series wind up in the situation listed above. The project makes a few waves and then the maker feels defeat and they just toss it up somewhere for free like YouTube or Vimeo. Worse yet, the maker decides that nobody cares about their project at all so they delete it from everywhere and it just goes to live forever in the deep recesses of someone's hard drive. 

The film industry strikes of 2023 and the endless wars with mainline streaming platforms over residuals and royalties opened a door for artists in independent film. While "The Industry" was trying to makes its next deal and everyone was waiting on the next iteration of the deal to be handed down from on high, we got to work making our own new deal. The world is starving for content and New Deal Television or NDTV is here to help you get your content in front of them regardless of what the traditional streaming industry is doing. NDTV is an instantly monetized platform for independent filmmakers that gives guidance, an audience, and a detailed plan for success for their current project and any subsequent project. 

The NDTV platform affords independent artists the opportunity to join in with other creators so that everyone shares success together outside of the normal movie business. Based on long standing and well established principles of online marketing strategies, this model is poised to rattle the established norms of film distribution with the direct-to-fan approach. When you distribute a movie with NDTV, you get a comprehensive guide and a checklist for audience building. You will learn and implement a content marketing strategy that will help people find you and your film. You might have the thought that nobody cares about your movie. The truth is, there are 8,000,000,000 people on the planet that just don't know who you are yet. How many of those people do you want to watch your movie? As many as possible, right? If only the smallest percentage of those people find your project because of your work with NDTV, you'll have more success with your project than your ever dreamt of. 

We give you the tools and the guidance to find your people. You use our system to find your people and bring them into the world of NDTV. Your people will stick around and find enough reason to stay. Everybody wins.

 Royalties and Revenue splits. Think of it like a door. When you distribute your project with NDTV, you get your own door. When you bring someone in to watch your project, they come in through your door. If they watch your project and bail, you collect your revenue split from that. The compounding part of our model is that, if your fan sticks around, you get a revenue spit every month from your fan's payment for the duration of their time on the NDTV platform, all because they came in through your door. We are fostering a community here and want people to come in for you as a creator and to stay for other creators that they are introduced to along the way. 

In addition to your monthly distributions for subscribers that you've brought to the platform, we pay streaming royalty residuals. We want to give you plenty of incentive to keep your project popular and relevant on the platform. This works on an RPM model like YouTube ad-sense. You will get a separate payout at a generous rate as Revenue Per Mille as your project amasses streams.

Two separate payment distributions that happen monthly are based on the success of your project on our platform while using our marketing system. We're not here just to take a piece of your pie like most film distribution companies do. We're here to give you a BIG piece or our pie. There's a lot of pie for everyone if we work together. 

Get the conversation started. Reach out with a link to your project. You'll need to make sure that you own all of the rights and clearances for your project. You'll need to understand that you are responsible to pay your own royalty points to your directors/producers/actors/investors out of your two monthly distributions that you receive from NDTV and that we aren't responsible for those. Let's get going! We have audiences to reach and new deals to make!
