#filmmakingpodcast #filmhub #relay #filmmaking 

This week on the podcast, I’m joined by Chad Wittman from Filmhub to break down their new streaming platform, Relay, and what it could mean for indie filmmakers navigating today’s crowded distribution landscape. We talk honestly about how Relay works for audiences, how filmmakers get paid compared to traditional AVOD platforms, and whether directing viewers to a single platform actually makes financial sense. Chad also shares Filmhub’s thinking around marketing, discoverability, data, international reach, and future platform support, while we dig into practical promotion strategies, analytics, and even the role of AI in artwork and marketing. If you’re an indie filmmaker trying to understand where streaming is heading then this conversation is for you.
