Be Featured on Indie Film Podcast

We know how hard indie filmmaking is, because we live it, too. That’s why we’re opening up Indie Film Podcast to feature and review indie films from creators like you. Our listeners are filmmakers, industry professionals, and cinephiles who want to discover the next great project.

 

Why not yours?

Sponsorships

Get in Front of the Right Audience 

You've already put in the work, now you need to get noticed. Marketers charge thousands, ads miss the mark, and your mom can only share your trailer so many times. That’s where we come in. Submit your film, film festival, or filmmaking product/service to sponsor an episode of Indie Film Podcast and get featured in front of your target audience: Indie filmmakers and fans who care.

​

Sponsor an episode of Indie Film Podcast and you get the spotlight; right at the start of an episode, before we dive into our chaos of filmmaking fails and lessons learned. Your logline, elevator pitch, summary, or product details will be read aloud to an audience of passionate indie filmmakers, cinephiles, and behind-the-scenes fans who actually care about discovering new projects.

​

Here's what you'll get (and what it means for you):

  • A unique spotlight from the IFP hosts (your story, plus our commentary)

  • Exposure to an audience of engaged filmmakers & fans (a promo that actually reaches the right people)

  • A backlink of your choice in our blog + YouTube description (drive traffic exactly where you want it)

  • Your imagery featured in our blog post (800x200px banner ad)

  • A permanent place in our archives for future listeners to find (your shoutout and backlink live on as our audience grows)

​

How Does it Work?​

  1. Submit your work and pay the sponsorship fee.

  2. We’ll review your submission; if you pass our community guidelines, you're in!

  3. We'll send an email to gather any additional details needed.

  4. We’ll schedule your spotlight (30–60 seconds at the very top of an episode).

​

Who Can Be a Sponsor?

Sponsorships are perfect for everyone looking to get their message out to independent film supporters; from industry professionals to scrappy student filmmakers. Film festivals looking for submissions or attendees can benefit from our global reach of engaged artists, while filmmakers can promote their films directly to indie film fans. Have you created an educational tool or platform to help guide and coach indie filmmakers, actors, or producers? You're right at home with the Indie Film Podcast fanbase.

Indie Film Reviews

Get a Published Review of Your Indie Film

...That wasn't written by a bot.

​

No shade to reviews crafted by AI, but that's not how we roll here at Indie Film Podcast. We're enthusiastic filmmakers excited to watch and review your film, then get you some usable notoriety for it! We offer four different tiers of reviews so you can find what best fits your budget.​​​

​

Written Indie Film Reviews

Share your film with us and after a thoughtful watch or two, we’ll craft a review of your film focusing on both technical skills and storytelling prowess. We’ll post your review (and the imagery you provide) on our website, as well as share the copy with you directly to use in any promotional materials you see fit.

 

  • Short Films (anything less than 45:00): $60

  • Feature Films (anything longer than 45:01): $85

 

Episode Sponsorship Add-On:

Since we’ll have already watched your film, take your online exposure up a notch by also getting a shout-out at the start of an Indie Film Podcast episode at a discounted rate. In addition to a written online review, you’ll get all the perks of a classic episode sponsorship.

 

  • Short Films (anything less than 45:00) with Sponsorship: $260

  • Feature Films (anything longer than 45:01) with Sponsorship: $285​

​

Indie Film Review Videos

Jump start your film’s promotions with all the perks of our classic written review, plus a video review from the Indie Film Podcast hosts. Video reviews will range from 5 to 10 minutes, and will be hosted on our YouTube channel in perpetuity (unless you ask us to take it down). This will include an additional backlink and your film’s logline included in the YouTube description, which we’ll optimize for maximum visibility. You'll retain a copy of both the written review and the video review for your records, or to use in any promotional materials for your film.

 

  • Video + Written Review (any film length): $375

 

Social Media Add-On:

Exclusive to the Video + Written Review we’re offering an additional Social Media package add-on where we’ll share a promotion about your film on our social media platforms. You will need to provide the imagery for the post, but can have up to 5 images shared (at our discretion) including your poster. This will include excerpts from our written review, as well as the logline for your film (that you will provide for us).

 

  • Video + Written Review (any film length) + Social Media Add-On: $425
