FAQ

What is Cinesomnia?
Cinesomnia™ is a global digital platform created by filmmakers, for filmmakers — built to showcase, distribute, and monetize bold independent films, series, sizzle reels, and pitch content from around the world. We connect visionary storytellers with global audiences, distributors, and buyers — all while allowing creators to retain full ownership and control over their work.
Whether you're a director with a feature, a producer with a pitch video, or a creative team with a proof-of-concept, Cinesomnia is the marketplace where independent film never sleeps.
1. We Stream & Distribute Globally
With Cinesomnia, your work can reach audiences, streamers, and industry buyers worldwide. You also have the option to request geoblocking if your distribution strategy requires territorial restrictions.
2. You Stay Independent
We believe in non-exclusive partnerships. That means you're free to submit your work elsewhere, license it to other platforms, or keep developing your own distribution plan.
3. Transparent Reporting & Payouts
We provide clear, quarterly reports detailing the performance of your film — including audience views, watch time, and platform reach. Royalties are paid 90 days after the end of each quarter, provided your earnings meet the minimum threshold.
How You Earn on Cinesomnia
We offer multiple revenue streams:
- Viewer tipping
- Pay-per-view rentals & purchases
- Subscription royalties
- Licensing opportunities with verified buyers
Your earnings are based on audience interaction and viewership — not algorithms. Our goal is to maximize filmmaker revenue while supporting long-term discoverability.
Submit Your Work
We’re always looking for bold, original work — from short films and series to pitch videos, sizzle reels, and proof-of-concepts. We accept projects of all formats and genres, including narrative, documentary, experimental, animation, and more.
Submissions are reviewed by our team within 2–3 weeks. Projects selected for the platform will receive onboarding instructions and inclusion in marketing and buyer outreach.
Whether you're ready to launch or still building your vision, Cinesomnia is here to support your journey.
