Reasons Why Original Content DOESN'T WORK! - Short Film News

So some of you may have seen our new Political Rage Short Film but sadly most of you probably haven't, it hasn't gained mainly views but yet something like our Doctor Who trailer can gain a thousand in less than a month. Why is that?

Here's a list of reasons why we rarely make original content and why it doesn't works:

No One is Searching it:
So the great thing about Star Wars and Doctor Who Fan Films is everyday someone is searching something related to them, meaning there is always a high chance that someone could stumbling across one of our videos, with stuff like Short Films or Original Content (Like Political Rage) Its rare for people to come across these unless you promote them really well.

We Can't Promote Them:
Like mentioned in the previous point, its very hard for us to promote our own content as we are a small amateur film making group, so we don't have the budge to get ads on websites or put up posters around our local city or across the country. This makes it difficult for people to hear about them.

We Are Beginners At This:
Even though our short films and shows have been some of our best work, we are still beginners at all of this, none of us claim to be professionals. So its inevitable that most of our original content will be overlooked by most people


This doesn't mean we won't keep making our own original stuff, it just means that we might not promote it as much as we do our other work, just because normally it doesn't make much of a difference.
