Why We Chose Independent Streaming to Launch Our Film—And Released the Book Side by Side

In the world of independent media, it's not just about the film—it's about creating a lasting impact.

At MaxVision Films, our journey with our first featured film, Ding Dong Ditch™, started with an innovative, visual narrative that captivated our audience.

After capturing the essence of this story on film, we took it a step further and expanded it into a book.

The result was not just another entertainment product, but a movement that resonated with fans worldwide.

Independent Streaming was a key part of our strategy.

By choosing platforms like Tubi, Plex, Amazon Prime Video, and Roku, we kept the rollout indie and accessible, staying true to our roots.

Publishing the book alongside the film release provided fans with multiple ways to experience the story, enriching the journey and broadening its reach.

MaxVision Films didn’t just make a film; we created a cultural statement.

From the pages of the book to the streaming platforms, every step of our journey was designed to connect with people.

Behind-the-scenes content from our Best Out Tour and other cross-media tie-ins have allowed us to engage with fans and showcase emerging talent along the way.

Why We Chose Independent Streaming for Our Film Release

Independent streaming platforms like Tubi, Plex, Amazon Prime Video, and Roku played a pivotal role in the accessibility and success of our release.

In a crowded market, staying true to our independent roots was important.

These platforms not only allowed us to reach a broader audience but also ensured that our film remained accessible to fans who are passionate about discovering new, creative content.

Streaming our film on these platforms allowed us to focus on the content rather than the constraints of traditional distribution methods.

We wanted to make sure our story was seen and appreciated by as many people as possible, without the limitations that often come with big studio contracts.

By partnering with independent platforms, we could focus on what truly matters: our fans and their experience with our work.

Publishing the book alongside the film was another strategic move. Fans of the film were able to expand their understanding of the story, while new audiences who discovered the book could also be introduced to the film. This dual release strategy not only boosted the visibility of both the film and the book but also created a buzz around MaxVision Films’ innovative approach to storytelling.

Behind the Scenes of Our Production and the Best Out Tour Highlights

One of the most rewarding aspects of this journey has been the behind-the-scenes content that we've shared with our fans.

Through our Best Out Tour, we gave audiences a closer look at how we brought our projects to life. From the early stages of production to the final cut, we showed the hard work, passion, and creativity that goes into every frame.

These behind-the-scenes moments helped fans feel more connected to the process and to us as filmmakers.

The Best Out Tour wasn’t just about the film—it was about the people who make it all happen.

Through these tours, we highlighted local talent, hosted live shows, and allowed our community to come together and celebrate independent filmmaking.

These events also served as a platform for rising talent to showcase their work, giving them exposure and opportunities they might not have had otherwise.

The Power of Cross-Media Storytelling

At MaxVision Films, we believe in the power of cross-media storytelling.

This is the concept of taking a single story and presenting it across different formats—film, books, music, live performances to create a more holistic experience for the audience. By using this approach, we engage multiple senses and create a deeper connection between the story and the audience.

For Ding Dong Ditch™, we not only had the film and the book, but also incorporated a unique soundtrack by local music artists, making the music an integral part of the narrative.

These artists were featured in the film and provided their work for the soundtrack, bringing an additional layer of depth to the story.

We also utilized live performances to further engage with our fans.

Our live shows were more than just screenings of the film—they were experiences where fans could meet the creators, learn about the production process, and get a glimpse into the future of MaxVision Films.

Bringing It All Together

The journey from film to book—and the subsequent movement we’ve created—has been incredibly rewarding.

By strategically using independent streaming platforms, launching a book alongside the film, and integrating behind-the-scenes content with the Best Out Tour, we’ve been able to create something that goes beyond the typical film release.

At MaxVision Films, we’re committed to pushing the boundaries of what it means to tell a story.

We’re not just creating entertainment; we’re creating experiences that resonate with people, connect communities, and foster talent.

As we continue to grow, we’re excited to see where our cross-media approach will take us and how we can continue to innovate in the world of independent filmmaking.
