I have several goals for this blog:

If a retarded grade one student came up with the business idea of selling pixels off a web site I would have had the kid sterilized. But Internet hype turned his zero idea into a million dollars.
And look at the crap videos that get released and everyone loves for no reason:
I mean take a look at Leeroy Jenkins and how popular it got:

And don't even get me started on girls with cups. Surely one of my video brain children is at least as interesting as these. So I will film and release them and see how popular they can become.
But in all fairness, ask a ninja is good:
And don't tase me bro is genius:

You can argue that once you've seen a movie you are not going to pay for it after so there would be no profit. Every hear of something called DVD releases? Last I heard they were doing well and often involve people buying stuff they have already watched. I just bought all of Jay Chandrasekhar's movies even though I've seen them because they are really good. The Internet is a fabulous tool for releasing media, but the people who are slowest at using this tool ( move and TV industry ) is the very people who should be utilizing it. The TV industry is slowly catching on but not fast enough.
What we are witnessing is a market failure from the media industries. Large corporations and not using tools readily available. So what we see is grass roots industry popping up all the time to compensate for this market failure. Of course these grass roots industries are very small. They can be as small as a person making a movie readily available using available tools like torrents. Even though people posting torrents don't make a profit they are satisfying a demand. People expect the convenience movie downloading can provide. The movie industry isn't meeting that demand.
So I want to market and profit from my movies using the tools available so this shall be my marketing scheme:
I shall release my movies free to watch. Watching my movie will allow you to decide if it is of value to you.
I shall endeavor to have as many people as possible watch my movies. I shall use tools readily available to spread full copies of my movies.
In order to watch one of my movies no one will have to pay (this will cause more people watch my films).
I shall release films that are interesting, unusual and thought provoking. After you watch one of my movies, you will feel it was worth watching.
I shall set up a website and if you feel you got value for my movie you will have the option of paying what you feel is fair. You take a car for a test ride, if you like it you pay a fair price for it. If you don't feel my movie was worth watching I don't want to cheat you so why should you pay for it. Only pay if it contained value for you. I will suggest the price of $0.25 for a viewing of one of my movies. Once you've paid me $0.25 for a movie you will be able to feel you've paid for it and are entitled to watch it whenever you want. If you didn't think it was good don't feel you have to pay anything. And as my movies will be available to watch on full over the Internet you won't need to own a DVD copy of one of my movies. You demand the convenience Internet distribution can provide and I supply it.
