I am working with some film makers here in FL on the trailer site. Once we have it together I'll announce it on Fango. I think to keep it FREE (truly free) people will have to host their own video as well, unless I can find someone to donate the space. One page with alphabetical links sorted by genre that lead to individual pages. Each page has to have a link back. Something simple like watchmymovie.com to make it easy to promote. 100 directors promoting one site, is better than everyone just pushing their own.
BTW, Morbidfilm on the Fango board suggested we list our flick on Ebay. It's great. You put up, two days later, its sold for more money that you wanted. We'll see how long that lasts.
I like the idea of trailer exchanging too. If you have similar topiced films, like werewolves or zombies you trade off trailers with another director to help sell each other's flicks. We've been including flyers for other directors' movies in with our shipping. I don't know if it has helped anyone yet, but it costs me the same amount to ship the DVD alone, so why not?
BTW, I don't trust those guys from Fango. Their site doesn't even work. Like I said, I'd split my money with someone who could move 2000 units or more, but these guys sound like they would be lucky to match my online sales.
