Indie Filmmakers Earn Money Via Fandor And Facebook

Using Fandor, independent film lovers can share clips from their favorite movies with Facebook friends, which in turn earns money for filmmakers.

Indie movie fans, check out the new subscription service, Fandor, where subscribers can share clips from their favorite flicks with their Facebook friends.

Fandor‘s Chief Operating Officer Montgomery Kosma said in a press release that the company seeks to connect “film lovers and filmmakers underserved by Hollywood.”

While major motion pictures rely on multi-million dollar marketing campaigns, independent films rely almost completely on word-of-mouth advertising. This is why Facebook is imperative to the service’s success; as Kosma explains, Facebook is the digital era’s “engine for word-of-mouth.”

Kosma said Fandor is taking the traditional water cooler movie conversation to a more interactive level.
