Indie filmmakers: what would make you trust a new platform with your short film?

Honest question for indie filmmakers:

If a brand-new platform launched tomorrow claiming to support short films properly, what would you need to see before trusting it with your work?

Things like:

• Rights & ownership
• Visibility
• Curation vs algorithms
• Monetization (or lack thereof)

I ask because I’m one of the founders of KwikFlik, and before assuming we know what filmmakers want, I’d rather hear it directly from people doing the work.
