The rise of the internet, coupled with the development of inexpensive, high-quality "prosumer" technology, has given writers and filmmakers unprecedented access to production means and certain types of distribution. More often than not, though, monetizing this work has proven stubbornly difficult. At Studio Hyperset, we're passionate about putting the fruits of production into the hands of writers and filmmakers. We created our Media Market to help prosumer filmmakers and writers monetize their work and deliver it to both professionals and lay consumers hungry for independent talent.
The Market achieves its goal in three ways: by selling DRM-light eTexts, offering various license types, and via our exclusive "Double Dutch" auction. Writers, artists, maritime enthusiasts, and readers of independent literature will be interested in our eText imprints Hard Tack and postSCRIPT, which publish maritime books and work from the frontiers of literature, respectively. The postSCRIPT imprint also publishes screenplays as a progressive form of the novel that we call the "Lesescenario." Now, screenwriters have a sales outlet for even the most frustratingly unsold and unproduced scripts. Screenwriters with production-oriented scripts can use our Double Dutch auction to earn top-dollar for an exclusive production license or can instead list it for sale under a non-exclusive production license.
Our auction and exhibition licensing services are also useful to filmmakers, both for establishing the value of their films and for selling exhibition licenses to independent film lovers as well as professional exhibitors and distributors. As this suggests, our licensing and auction services can help consumers of independent film, and professional exhibitors and distributors, get in touch with filmmakers on the creative fringe. Sensitive to litigation concerns, the Market also allows film producers, distributors, and exhibitors to browse all scripts and films without leaving even a trace of their presence.
So whether you're a reader of avant garde literature, a maritime enthusiast, a film professional, or an independent cinema hipster, the Market offers you a range of purchases. If you're a writer, artist, or filmmaker, contact Studio Hyperset, and we'll help you list your work. It's all part of Studio Hyperset's scripted revolution!
