Distribution for our indie feature

Well we've officially released our indie feature "Dormant" on Amazon Prime! We're excited but would like to stretch the distribution market. Any suggestions on the best distributor for Netflix, Hulu or Redbox? We are considering an credible aggregator called "Distribber" but would like to consider other options. Thanks!

Indie filmmakers do not deal directly with Netflix. An aggregator such as IndieRights or Gravitas can recommend your film to Netflix, but Netflix makes its decisions independently on its own. In a real sense, they need to "find" your film.

Yes, access is much more limited now. But it's mostly because of the huge spike in their own production slate.

Go through Distribber to get your film on Tubi.

Jay Burton, I am a bit confused about Amazon. It seem there are two ways to sell your movie on the platform; Amazon Prime and Amazon Video Direct. If I am right, how can I sell my movies on Amazon prime?

Faruku Sayyadi, you'll have to create an Amazon Prime account - https://videodirect.amazon.com/home/landing

My contacts at Distribber recently advised even they cannot bypass a year long waiting list to get in front of Neflix... Just be aware of spending anything to aggregators as they are wringing their hands as much as filmmakers these days.
