We’re in the middle of an indie boom.
Creators all over the world are breaking the old rules and making work on their own terms. IndieBoom is a platform designed to support artists, and engage fans… by turning viewing and listening into a game. Filmmakers and musicians use social media to drive audience to their work!
How does IndieBoom work?
FOR FILMS AND VIDEOS:
FOR SONGS:
Films, series, media and music are always FREE for audience, and every stream is a vote.
- Each Official Selection is linked to our Vimeo Pro account, with its description and social links, to make promotion to your network — and beyond — easy and fun.
- The selection with the most time viewed in each category (Comedy, Drama, etc.) wins laurels and a Digital Certificate.
- The selection with the most time viewed overall wins our Grand Prize: A handmade trophy and some official IndieBoom merch!
FOR SONGS:
- Each Official Selection streams free on our Bandcamp page, and we keep track of its stats.
- Our Top 5 songs can remain on our site for sale after the festival, with revenue going to the artists.
- The piece of music with the most listens on our Bandcamp page wins our Grand Prize: A handmade trophy and some official IndieBoom merch!
Films, series, media and music are always FREE for audience, and every stream is a vote.
