Little Wings Picked Up For Distribution By FlipsideTV


Our award winning short film, Little Wings, has been picked up for worldwide distribution through streaming, Video on Demand, and DVD/Blu-ray release by FlipsideTV.

In 2005, Brian Barsuglia, of SoCal Entertainment and Media Company, started the SoCal Film Festival and now, he has added FlipsideTV to the mix. Barsuglia's aim with the festival was to exhibit independent movies and start a distribution company.  In essence, FlipsideTV will be like a Netflix for independents, but more, as it will also offer a complete distribution solution for producers and a unique distribution outlet for short films. 

Essentially, FlipsideTV, is an inexpensive subscription service for film lovers and watchers.  Their goal is to provide quality and entertaining movies without overloading the members, and, at the same time, giving a new opportunity to filmmakers. FlipsideTV offers filmmakers a straight-forward distribution agreement, either exclusive or non-exclusive, with an incredible profit and royalty sharing plan. The agreement is re-evaluated every year giving more freedom to the filmmakers.

Additionally, with short films, FlipsideTV plans to eventually add like movies to “collections” and take them to market, targeting Netflix, iTunes, Amazon Prime, DVD on Demand, Video on Demand markets as well as International markets.

Little Wings will be part of the official launch in April 2012. 

In it's initial release in 2007, Little Wings was picked up at the Cannes International Film Festival for worldwide distribution through Singa Home Entertainment.
