MOVIES+MUSIC exists to support independent Aussie music and film content creators through a dedicated video subscription service. Why is this vital?

1. Fostering Local Creativity

Independent creators often operate outside the mainstream industry, giving them the freedom to explore unique stories and sounds that reflect Australia's diverse culture. A subscription service offers them a platform to share their vision and enrich the cultural landscape.

2. Overcoming Funding Challenges

Without the backing of major studios or labels, many independent creators struggle to secure the resources needed to produce high-quality content. A subscription model provides consistent revenue, enabling them to fund new projects and sustain their careers.

3. Amplifying Authentic Voices

Australian music and film often capture local themes, landscapes, and stories that resonate deeply with both local and international audiences. By supporting these creators, the service helps preserve and amplify these authentic voices.

4. Community Building

A platform dedicated to Aussie creators builds a community of fans who are passionate about local content. This sense of belonging encourages viewers to actively support and engage with creators.

5. Global Visibility for Australian Talent

Such a service can serve as a gateway for international audiences to discover Australian talent, helping to raise the profile of Aussie creators and promote cultural exchange.

6. Fair Revenue Distribution

By sharing profits directly with creators, the service ensures that artists are compensated fairly for their work, addressing long-standing concerns about inequitable earnings in traditional distribution models.

7. Affordable Access to Quality Content

A reasonably priced subscription, like $7 per month, makes premium local content accessible to a broader audience. This affordability encourages fans to support the platform while enjoying diverse, high-quality entertainment.

8. Stimulating the Creative Economy

Investing in independent creators helps to grow Australia’s creative industry, creating jobs and inspiring future artists and filmmakers to pursue their passions.

Supporting independent creators through a subscription service is about more than entertainment—it's about preserving Australian cultural identity, fostering creativity, and ensuring a sustainable future for local artists.
