Looking to

Self-Distribute ?

VHF 21 is as an experiment in media consumption and distribution, putting creators first. VHF 21 was originally designed as a T.V. station for my next feature film. After playing with the logistics I decided to see what would happen if this idea was released into the real world. What would happen if we created together?

VHF 21 aims to explore what is possible when we share resources. To do this, I will be looking to collaborate so we can see what moves the machine, together.

If you are looking to self distribute your film on youtube, lets see if we can extend the reach together. Submissions are FREE and if selected I will split the ad revenue with you from day 1.

I can’t wait to see what you create!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • VHF 21 is a fictional television station from the film “Yours, Mine, and Ours”. As I learned what modern creatives were experiencing, I thought this might work in the real world as well.

    I have spent my career exploring the economics of creativity, and this project has taught me way more than I expected. So much so, that I want to share it with others.

    What would happen if creatives were more involved with the building of something that supports them, instead of extorting them?

  • Each film comes with its own goals and limitations. The ideal person would be considering self distribution and this would help give you a bigger initial audience to share your film with.

    If you already have a monetized channel then maybe you can be a part of my series Open The Gates where I interview filmmakers about their careers and what they’ve learned.

  • Over 2 decades of creating, I have seen multiple avenues of distribution, and most options leave creators out of the decision making for their films.

    An average youtube channel will take 6-18 months to monetize so this is my way of helping you bypass this and partner in the success of your work on day 1. You made it, you should get paid for it.

    Creators will become collaborators and receive a 50/50 split of any ad revenue starting day 1. This is an experiment in transparency so all contracts are 1 year. Hopefully this serves as a springboard to starting your own channel, website or career.

    At the end of the year, the video can be removed or extended for another year with the same terms. The goal is to offer creators a financial stake from the moment they upload. Let’s get your film seen, together.

  • As a filmmaker and educator I consider myself to be collaborative, honest, and transparent. I’m here to be a partner, not a boss. This will only work if we both buy into the goal.
