Show Notes

Scilla Andreen, CEO of IndieFlix

Award-winning producer, director, and CEO of global entertainment screening service, IndieFlix, Scilla Andreen. Scilla fell into film, working initially as a costume designer on commercials and eventually for shows such as Dawson’s Creek, Smallville and The Wonder Years, in which she was nominated for an Emmy. 

IndieFlix launched in 2005, aiming to “offer everything that Hollywood doesn’t offer". By 2007, the service transitioned the library to a streaming platform, creating the RPM model (Revenue per minute) paying filmmakers for every minute watched.

  • The birth and development of IndieFlix.
  • Understanding the importance of marketing your film.
  • The misconceptions around streaming platforms
  • Finding the right platform for your film and seeking out multiple platforms.
  • The film festivals’ role in the market place.
  • Defining your goals as a filmmaker.
  • How your approach and behaviour as a filmmaker affects the relationships you form and future reputation..
