Every once in a while I get on a documentary kick. Sometimes it’s just because I come across one on tv, but I’ll also seek them out on Hulu or Netflix. Next time that I’m looking for a documentary, I’m definitely going to check out SnagFilms. They’re a Washington, DC based company that aims to “bring the world of independent film to broader audiences.” Their main property is SnagFilms.com, which “offers the broadest collection of great independent movies you can watch right now, on demand, for free, and share with others.” SnagFilms’ other major property is Indiewiere, which is “the web’s leading news, information and networking site for independent-minded filmmakers, the film industry and moviegoers.” Basically they’re doing everything that they can to make independent films available to the masses, for free.

Snag a Job

One of the most impressive things about SnagFilms is the names behind the company. The Founder is Ted Leonsis, and one of the key investors is Steve Case. If you don’t know who they are, go look them up now. Guys like that don’t mess around with something unless they have a really good reason to. Obviously, the best way to get a feel for SnagFilms is to use the site to watch some documentaries, but I also highly recommend that you read the About SnagFilms and About SnagFilms.com pages. They go into great detail about why they’re doing what they’re doing, so it’s well worth reading. If you like what you see, then go to SnagFilms’ Jobs page. Right now they’re looking for an Advertising Coordinator. It looks like a wonderful opportunity for a new or recent grad.
