LoftCity Announces Official Launch of First Online Film Studio and Distribution House

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LoftCity (www.loftcity.com), the first-ever online film studio, announced the official launch of their website today. LoftCity.com is a unique community of professional filmmakers that is revolutionizing film production and distribution. LoftCity.com serves as a professional network for filmmakers, a production management tool and a digital distribution center.

LoftCity creates an alternative to the traditional studio system. This online studio focuses on the huge need for professional-level content specific to mobile services and the web. LoftCity provides a platform for independent filmmakers to create both locally as well as collaborate on a global scale. In LoftCity, a director in Chicago, an editor in Japan and a composer in Australia can combine their talents on a single project. LoftCity offers a private and secure virtual “loft” where filmmakers can showcase and manage the entire production process from start to finish.

LoftCity offers the filmmakers distribution services to internet TV destination sites and mobile service providers. Profits are earned through advertising at web destination sites and mobile distribution revenue.

The LoftCity team also offers a “Call for Productions” page that serves as a callboard for special contests awarding grants, and parties (I.e. interactive agencies and distribution channels) searching for ideas, trailers, full production of Shorts, and Viral Ads.

6 weeks after LoftCity’s Beta site opened, Co-founder Sagi Rubin is enthusiastic about their official launch. “The Beta is going really well,” he said. “We managed to bring together more then 3,100 filmmakers from over 60 countries. Hundreds of film projects in various stages of production are already underway. We’re excited, because LoftCity is a real opportunity for the new generation for filmmakers.”
