    What are the crucial things in this?

    All other things :-) Money, marketing, PR, distribution, actors, people on set, grading, editing, etc

    If you check mobile app stores, they also see dropping number of profitable small companies or individuals. On initial stage in the unset market you have small chance, but after this big and tuned machines win.

    Why not? Can you elaborate it in more words?

    Because video hosting and payments are not cruicial things in this.

    Curious numbers:

    to use vimeo on demand you need to go vimeo pro. it is 199 usd/year. Today in Brazilian currency it will be something like 400 Reais (payment and tax, Real is our currency)

    400 Reais / 12 months = 33.333333 per month. Is it an interesting anamorphic coincidence?

    I am sad to tell you, but "indie revolution" won't happen :-)

  • apefosapefos

    Almost everything until now was about gear. Reviews, tutorials, tests, comparisons...

    I think now is the time the real thing will begin. With the possibility of making money, instead of hold the job to sell in DVD, Bluray, TV stations, the real work from directors and producers will start to show up online (docs, narratives, feature films, series and so on) and the real internet revolution in indie filmmaker will begin.

    Vimeo On Demand (pay to view) is a smart decision from Vimeo to avoid the website to be mainly a gear test platform and complete the indie filmmaking revolution filling the last gap: online paid screening.

    Show your talent! Next Spielbergs, Camerons, Lucas, Hitchcocks are to be born!

    P.S.: Interesting thing will happen: there will be better films done with cel phones or cheap cameras instead of pro cameras. this will be the time for human talent (script, direction, acting), not gear quality!
