FesthomeTV is a self-management platform (we prepare it and then you manage the system with web tools). You create the sessions you want, on the dates you want and add the movies you want to those sessions. Users have the possibility to buy these sessions or a pass to see the entire festival, or you could also offer the festival completely free.


You will have an administration page with statistics of use, management of films, box office, ticket sales, creation of discounts or promotional codes, accounts for collaborators, etc. You can also geo-lock so that movies can only be viewed from one or several countries in particular or add high levels of security with DRM.


Create a public festival free for everyone in your area, or sell tickets for the festival or per session which may have different dates, or a private video library to hold your past editions with access control to your staff or association members, or a market library for visitors of your festival which they may continue viewing back at home. We create the tools and you choose how to use them.

In order to prepare a budget, you need to consider several things and how you want to the festival files to be handled


Conversion & Storage:


The cheapest option would be using Vimeo PRO / Business if you already have such an account, since you could then upload those films to that account (or even Youtube) and link them in your online festival. We don’t charge for this, but some filmmakers may not accept to use this method because downloading films from these services is easy for people with some tech expertise.

A more secure option is storing the video files in our servers, since films are always protected in Festhome with data encryption key systems. You would have the option to choose between HDReady or Full HD, which doubles the cost.

The most secure option of all would imply adding full Hollywood-grade DRM protection (like Amazon or Netflix), which would mean increasing the cost and using Full HD.


チケット:


Tickets to the online festival are usually paid by viewers, although it is possible to make the festival free of charge.

If tickets are not free, then we usually make a breakdown in which 75% of the box-office goes to the festival and 25% to Festhome after subtracting payment gateways fees. We would be in charge of technical costs pertaining to servers and streaming, technical support for viewers, etc.

Customarily, we set a ticket price of 1,5 to 3€ for each ~60-minute session. The festival pass is calculated based on the total minutes, although you may choose to not sell festival passes.


フリー:


If your choice would be to make the festival entirely free of charge for viewers, we would charge you for the streaming cost of users watching the films. That cost would be between 2 and 6 cents for every 10 minutes, based on the configuration from above.


To give you a budget, we need to know which configuration you want to use and the approximate number of minutes of the films that you want to put online, so that we may calculate the costs.

DRM保護


DRM Protection for all uploaded films:


When using our servers, all content is encrypted and requires a de-encryption key to play the video files.

In order to play, the video player will ask our vault server for permission to play, and after checking if the viewer has legitimate permission, it will give the key to the player and allow playback.

This protection is safe enough for most content, but for hot releases and content that requires the highest protection, we also offer advanced DRM solutions.



Studio / ハリウッド級DRM保護:


これらは、ハリウッドの主要スタジオで映画に要求されているものと同じDRMシステムで、Netflix、Amazon、iTunesなどの公共プラットフォームで使用されています。

ハリウッド級のDRM保護は、あなたのビデオファイルが配布されたとしても、それらが許可なしに再生されることができないことを保証します。コンテンツを再生できるようにするために、承認されたビューごとに単一の有効期限キーが作成されます。

Widevine、PlayReady&Fairplayを使用して、あなたの映画の暗号化コピーを作成します。 It is also possible to activate further protection, such as software screen capture protection via HDCP.

If your content requires high levels of protection to stream online, this is the way to do it.

The most secure platform for your festival


MPA (MPAA) Compliance:


While the MPAA does not offer certifications (be wary of those who say they are), it does offer security best practices for handling, hosting and supplying securely multimedia content. These best practices not only refer to the content itself, but the way the services are built and the handling of security throughout the whole process, from registration, to cookies or authentication, among many others. When using our servers and advanced DRM protection, we follow these MPAA Content Best Practices for content security where relevant, and even when not using our servers, most of these best practices are upheld for our services.

https://www.motionpictures.org/best-practices


Our use of Amazon Web Services ensures high reliability, the use of industry standards and secure protocols from one of the most trusted Cloud services in the world. Not only are our services compliant, but our providers and partners follow these practices and guidelines.

https://aws.amazon.com/compliance/mpaa/


Digital Rights Management (DRM)


Studio-approved and tested DRM systems provided by the best in the industry and one of the pioneers of DRM solutions and software solutions for content protection, active for over 30 years with offices all over the world.


Watermarking


If your content requires traceability, we can enable per viewer and session watermarking with several solutions, that allows tracing any view to a specific user.


Proxy detection


Want to prevent users with a proxy, TOR network browsers or VPN access from accessing the content? Our proxy detection systems allow you to block the content even more than geo-blocking.


HDCP保護


Enable up to HDCP 2.2 protection to prevent screen recording of the films. By using HDCP protection, your films can be only be viewed by compliant devices and a black screen will be displayed when it detects an attempt to record the content.


Device limits


Limit the amount of devices that can access the festival with a single account.


Multiplay or single play


Allow a ticket holder to watch the content multiple times or just once with the same ticket, and even make tickets expire after a certain time.


Flexible Geo-blocking


Allow certain films and sessions to be geo-blocked to a certain country or region and others to different ones, to make a truly accessible experience depending on the rights of the films on display.


Strict privacy policy


We are GDPR compliant and store our data in the EU, avoiding marketing and tracing cookies to protect both viewers and festivals.


The most secure payment methods


We work with several payment gateways around the globe to maximise reach and allow viewers from anywhere to be able to access your content and ensuring the most secure protocols are in place to protect viewers.


Secure tools


It is not only about viewing, but also about working in a secure environment that allows your staff to reduce their exposure to human mistakes. We use secure protocols like two-factor authentication or anti social-engineering tools, among many others, to protect your accounts and your content.








Because every festival is different, you need different tools



We offer different ways to display your festival online, using different configurations and options that all may be mixed together and with each other to create unique experiences.

Allow your viewers to watch only a session from 6PM to 8PM, with presale of tickets and auto loading at the time decided. Create an on demand experience where each film has their own page with the information relevant to it, director, selections, cast and crew, etc.

Create a calendar of activities and streams, with presentations from the directors, live or pre-recorded Q&As, allow films to go online after a physical session has finished and give free codes to the viewers to give to their families or friends and expand your viewership.





Mecal On line

Success story



On March 2020, just one week before the start of the festival and due to the COVID-19 health crisis, the Barcelona International Short Film and Animation Festival Mecal was forced to postpone their on site sessions. In order to avoid a complete cancellation of the festival and deliver to their audiences and the filmmakers, they contacted us to create an online version of their festival. In less than a week they were able to have in our system over 250 films and launch on time for their promised dates.


See an example of how their festival looks like on Festhome TV:
