About

Little Indie Film is a place for indie films to be seen and discovered by an audience. It’s where your films, scripts, and personal brand live so you can build a following on a site that centers entirely around the indie film industry.

Why we built it

It is so hard to build a following and get views on projects you spent months (or years) pouring your heart, soul, money, and time into—especially when the production process is spread across so many platforms. Filmmakers deserve better than a link-in-bio, or one social media post that half your followers miss. Here, every filmmaker keeps their own site, their own fans, and can build a brand in one, easy-to-access place.

People feel like there’s a lack of indie films being made, but this isn’t the case at all: indie films, especially student work, don’t get the same level of exposure as multi-million dollar projects and aren’t shown in theaters or widely distributed. Only friends and family, and sometimes attendees of festivals, ever watch these projects—and that’s not how it should be. Little Indie Films is a streaming service that both provides connection to other indie filmmakers and serves as an avenue for distribution that projects wouldn’t otherwise receive.

Who’s behind it

Made in Austin, in conjunction with Be9 Productions and Scratchmade, and shaped by the filmmakers who use it.

Sponsors

Help the next wave get seen

We’re looking for sponsors who care about young filmmakers — festivals, gear houses, post shops, film programs. Sponsorship keeps the platform free for students and puts your name beside their best work.
