In 2007 I made a little B action film with Ci Ci Foster, Felicia Danisor, Jack Guasta, Tonee Dang, Makayla Louise Boyd, Wendy George Valasso and Shawn Bernal, about a good cop trying to bring down a group of dirty cops who framed him for murder. Part 80's cable martial arts movie, 70's blaxploitation and 90's fighting video-game. We were the one of the first (if not the first) films made specifically for digital distribution (we were aiming at iTunes). We never made it to iTunes, but had a little success with a now defunct smaller outfit. Around the end of 2012, I got a letter from Youtube saying I could upload videos longer than 15 minutes and become a partner if I was interested. I said, heck "Why not." I uploaded my little film. Today Wages of Sin just breached half a million views on Youtube. Not bad for an unknown indy out of Chicago with no distribution.
