How It Works

FootageRep works with filmmakers to monetize their footage and we help them do more of what they love most – shooting!

We take your original clips (rushes) exactly as they came out of your camera. We do all of the post-production for you. When you submit to us, you’ll never have to do any editing, color-correcting, other post-production or tedious metadata. See how FootageRep’s post-production is Compared to Traditional Agencies.

We have two plans for filmmakers, and the choice is yours. With our 100 Plan, you will be paid immediately upon acceptance. Or you can choose our 50/50 Plan, which will pay you 50% of all sales received.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Apply to FootageRep to tell us a bit about yourself, what footage you’d like us to look at and which of our Two Plans you prefer.
  2. We will take a look at the quality of your work. If we like what we see, we will work with you to monetize your footage. Please note that we need signed model releases and for footage to contain no logos. Read more in our Submission Guidelines.
  3. You will then be given login info for the Footage Manager™ section of our website.
  4. You can then easily send your footage through our own Upload System.
  5. As soon as the footage is accepted, we will pay you immediately by PayPal for the 100 Plan, or when sales are made with the 50/50 Plan.

Testimonials

What filmmakers have to say about us

Communication was quick, instructions and forms easy to understand and fill in and most importantly – the money arrived instantaneously after signing the contract. I would be more than happy to work with you again in the near future.

Anže Č., Slovenia

Thank you for the business and timely payment. I may have more clips to show you soon.

Cole G., Delta, British Columbia, Canada

FootageRep was very good with providing all the information required for the shoot in an easy to understand and friendly format. This allowed me to focus more on the shoot. If you had any questions regarding the shoot or anything else it was simple to contact them; often receiving a response very promptly. It was a pleasure working for FootageRep and I will certainly be applying for another shoot sometime soon.

John Thornton, Yorkshire, England

From the very beginning, Carl was an absolute pro. He was very clear with what was needed and how to submit my footage. After he created a username/password for me, a simple “drag and drop” on his website and that was it! After sending the completed paperwork in, I was paid via PayPal almost immediately.

Reo Stevens, Oahu, Hawaii

I have been working with FootageRep already for three years and I can provide my best recommendations! They are always very swift in communication and easy to work with. Everytime I have interesting footage from some action sports I send it over and they choose what they wish to purchase. After I upload the shots and all the documents mentioned in the submission guidelines, money is sent to my PayPal. I’m looking forward to work with FootageRep in the future.

Laci Kobulsky, Presov, Slovakia

Easy to work with, and fast communication. They encourage you to be creative through out the shoot which is always great. Payment was fast and easy. A great experience!

Savva Svet, Brooklyn, New York

It has been great working with you. Extremely quick and organised process – payment was instant once all the information was complete.

Rohaan T., Wahroonga, Australia

Hey Dude, Thanks for the money transfer! I have a new edit up from when my friends and I were down shredding in Orlando at OWC. Check it out and let me know if your interested in buying any of the clips.
