AudPop, a video platform that connects global filmmakers to opportunities, has established a strategic partnership with digital-first content distributor and production company, TwentyOne14 Media, to provide strategy mentorship and digital-first content distribution solutions to help independent filmmakers of color monetize their films through a variety of media exploitation platforms. The effort is intended to encourage and promote new, diverse voices.

“With film festivals shuttered, it so important to help filmmakers find their audience. The core mission of AudPop is to elevate diverse emerging filmmakers,” said Paige Williams, AudPop CEO. “Through our partnership with TwentyOne14 Media, we are thrilled to provide diverse filmmakers a solution to monetize their films.”

Emphasis will be given to projects that stars a person of color, or is directed, written, and/or produced by a person of color. To submit a film for distribution deal consideration, filmmakers can submit their film at https://audpop.com/twentyone14media/independentfilmdistribution.

“I’m excited to join forces with AudPop to support diverse new voices and encourage filmmakers of color to continue telling stories that offer a rich and more complete portrayal of the world around us,” said TwentyOne14 Media CEO Quincy Newell. “Our goal is to support and work closely with each of our filmmaker partners to develop the most optimum strategy to monetize their content and grow their business through rights licensing.”
