The free, curated national streaming network for independent Australian film, music and screen is inviting filmmakers, film schools and students to put real work through it, on the devices they already own, and tell us how it holds up.
FREE TO WATCH FREE TO HOST NO ALGORITHM
OzInDi Network Australia has opened a test phase across the whole platform, and is asking Australian independent filmmakers, film schools and students to put finished work through it and report back. The network is free to watch, free to host, carries no advertising and is now based at Screen Queensland Studios in Cairns.
TESTERS WANTED
Put real Australian work through it and tell us what works and what breaks.
WHO CAN TEST
Australian independent filmmakers, film schools and students. Any finished work: a short film, a documentary, a series episode, an artist profile or live performance.
WHAT TO TEST
Play a film start to finish on the device you really use: phone, tablet, TV, car speaker or the web. Check picture, captions and sound. Nothing should interrupt the work.
WHAT YOU GET
Free hosting, a national audience and your name in the credits. No fees, no commission and no exclusivity, so the work stays yours to sell or license wherever you like. No cost, no exclusivity, and you keep your rights.
Tell us your name, the work, and the device you tested on.
WHY WE EXIST
Good Australian work keeps getting buried. Algorithms reward volume, not craft. Advertising rewards attention, not the work. Paywalls reward whoever can afford them. OzInDi is the opposite: a curated, free, national home where independent work is presented properly and found.
WHAT THE NETWORK CARRIES
Short films, documentaries, factual series, artist profiles, live performance, dance and theatre, and 24-hour radio. Everything is Australian, independent and curated. Nothing is uploaded automatically and nothing is chosen by an algorithm.
OzInDi Network is based at Screen Queensland Studios, Cairns.
