Description
The way we acquire content is from a variety of places.
We use a digital rights marketplace like Vuulr where we negotiate a deal with the seller. We have been agreeing to pay $100 for 30 minutes of video for a 30+ run in the cinema.
We are hiring a program director who can get us in touch with genre filmmakers for a fee and that usually works to about $750/month.
We also reach out to rights owners to negotiate a deal.
So far we have agreed to pay for the following films which we will be showing over the next 2 months with a total payout of $800 pending.
