Entrepreneur, Mumtaz Yildirimlar (former Warner Brothers and Deluxe Media employee), is fortunate enough to manage the company. He is an experienced film-maker, editor and technical servicing specialist. He understands the competitive marketplace and complications of selling and delivering a film from start to finish. Where possible, Mumtaz will fight hard to deliver and publish a film to many platforms where it is physically and technically possible. Mumtaz thrives on excellent communication and transparency with filmmakers. Via his own frustrations (such as being ignored when submitting films), and first hand experience of making and distributing films himself, the company was born to offer such services. In addition, Mumtaz is currently studying to become a qualified solicitor. He is in preparation for the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE 1&2) and aims to hold credit as a solicitor regulated by the Solicitors Regulation Authority (SRA). With the forever growing market of platforms, apps, devices and copyright issues that arise, it is important to stay protected from a legal standpoint. This will help strengthen Mumtaz's legal knowledge, which will enable him to officially offer legal advice within the entertainment industry sector to struggling film-makers.

MY Spotlight Independent Video on Demand (MSIVOD) is currently available worldwide as a web based, Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) platform, where customers can buy a film. Additionally, the platform has been integrated into an app, so that it can be downloaded from the Apple app store and Google Play app store on both iOS and android devices. There is no subscription required and all films are £1 to buy. We treat each and every film with the same level of respect that they deserve. We purposely did not create an AVOD (Advertisement Video on Demand) model, which is where viewers watch movies for free with ads. We're offering a TVOD (transactional Video on Demand) service because we feel that AVOD is dominating the industry and disrupting the marketspace because film-makers who work hard creating content, barely get paid for their work as a result of AVOD royalty rates. For example, in the past, when producers or distributors sold a million copies of a film for say one pound, the income would be one million pounds. However now, a million views on an AVOD platform would not make anything worth raving about. The royalties are calculated based on how much the advertisers pay the AVOD platform to have their ads inserted over the films. It's essentially the advertisers and the AVOD platform who benefit most, and not so much the content creators. In most instances, creators are being paid pennies when thousands of minutes are being streamed. We're trying to change this buy selling each film for £1. At least filmmakers have a better shot at making a few thousands pounds if they make a few thousand sales. If you are a film-maker, you will understand where we are coming from as it impacts you the most. If you are a viewer, please choose wisely because the content creators are creating the content to entertain us, and we don't want them to give up if they do not earn their well deserved royalties. Additionally, we're on a mission to normalise the divide between small and big budget films, because often lower budget films are overlooked and appear at the bottom of the list. We're not afraid to place small and big budget films side by side. Anyone who buys a film from our service will directly contribute to our mission: reducing that divide and helping filmmakers get paid better.

It is always a challenge to release content on other VOD platforms because from our experience, platforms can be more selective of content and axe films without any notice, require unnecessary, complex file delivery methods and more. As a result of this, it can make it difficult for filmmakers to trust, cover costs and deliver the desired deliverables alone. We proudly place small and big budget films together without favouring big budget stuff at the top. We guarantee a release without it sitting in a list of avails for a buyer that may never come. If you have no trailer available, we will cut one for you, if your film needs an audio fix, we will fix it, if you have no closed captions and posters available, we will create them for you. Take action today and please get in touch.

SUBMIT a private viewing link of your film to us. We will fully review it and respond without fail if your submission is genuine and politely put together. We will offer full transparency and let you know exactly which platforms and territories your films will appear on. We will suggest best course of action for your film depending on your deliverables, and make you a distribution offer. We are inclusive of a variety of content including shorts, features, documentaries, animation, music videos and LGBTQ+. We don't let you deal with complicated technical delivery methods alone. We don't tie you down to long license terms, and we will never recoup endless marketing and post-production costs. We are responsive, not automated and never fail to report and pay on time.
