For the story you couldn’t leave untold
Free upfront publishing, marketing, and distribution for independent movies. A real plan for what happens after the final cut.
The next act
Making it is personal. Getting it out into the world shouldn’t feel impossible.
Launch Your Movie helps independent creators turn a finished or near-release project into a thoughtful commercial release. We bring publishing preparation, audience positioning, marketing, and distribution into one conversation.
There is no upfront publishing or marketing fee. If we agree to work together, our compensation comes from an agreed share of sold copies. We define the details with you before the work begins.

Independent doesn’t mean alone
Features. Shorts. Documentaries. Animation. Episodic stories. We’re interested in what you made and who it could move.
Traditional craft and AI-assisted creativity both belong in the conversation. What matters is a compelling work and a clear account of the rights, permissions, and tools behind it.
