Film screener platform with your press kit in the same workspace
Everything your film needs. Ready to share.
FilmRelay gives filmmakers, teams and distributors one professional workspace to manage secure screeners, film materials and downloadable assets, and to share them with festivals, cinemas, buyers, programmers, press and other industry professionals.
Free plan. No credit card required.
From upload to follow-up in three steps.
Add your film and materials
Upload the master video once. Add the poster, stills, press kit and trailer to the same title.
Send a private screener link
Create a link for each recipient. Set a password and an expiry date and, if you want, a limit on how many times it can be opened. The viewer watermark runs over the film.
See who watched and follow up
See who opened the link, how long they watched and whether they reached the end. Then write your follow-up knowing what they saw.
Built around films, not files.
Keep each title and everything needed to present it professionally together. Upload your materials and master video once, then create the right link whenever somebody needs access.
Secure screeners
Create private viewing links with password protection, expiration dates and viewer watermarking.
Film materials
Keep posters, stills, press kits, trailers and other professional assets organised around each film.
Controlled downloads
Create dedicated download links when a recipient needs the actual video file.
Film pages
Publish a professional page for each title with the information and materials you choose to make available.
Viewing analytics
See how your screeners are being accessed and watched, including viewing progress and session activity.
Download analytics
Track access to your download links and see when files are being downloaded.
Share your film without losing control.
Upload your master video and create dedicated viewing links for festivals, programmers, buyers, cinemas and other professional recipients.
- Private viewing links
- Password protection
- Expiration dates
- Viewer watermarking
- View limits
- Controlled video download links
Every professional asset with the film it belongs to.
Stop rebuilding film packages across cloud folders and transfer services. FilmRelay keeps your promotional and press materials organised around each title.
- Posters and artwork
- High-resolution film stills
- Press kits and documents
- Trailers and promotional video
- Additional files organised by title
One professional destination for your film.
Give recipients a clear film page instead of sending separate links for posters, stills, trailers and press materials. Choose what to publish and keep everything under your own FilmRelay workspace.
Deliver the master when the time comes.
When a festival or distributor asks for the master, send it from the same platform with a controlled download link. You don’t need a separate transfer service, and you can see when the file is downloaded.
Know what happens after you share.
FilmRelay records activity from the professional links you create, giving you visibility into how screeners are viewed and files are downloaded.
Viewing analytics
Track openings, viewing sessions, watched time, progress, maximum playback position and completion.
Download analytics
See link accesses, downloads and activity associated with the professional download links you create.
Present your films under your own identity.
Configure your FilmRelay workspace with your organisation branding and use a dedicated public address for the film pages you publish.

- Dedicated FilmRelay workspace
- Custom public workspace URL

Built for filmmakers, distributors and press.
Filmmakers
Start on the free plan, send your film to festival programmers and see who opened the link.
Distributors and production teams
Public pricing, a dedicated link for each buyer and viewing data for every one of them. No sales call.
Press agencies
Send journalists the film and its materials from the same platform, and see which of them watched.
FilmRelay or Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer, Vimeo and YouTube?
Drive, Dropbox and WeTransfer are good for moving files between editors. Vimeo and YouTube are good for hosting a trailer or a public video. Keep using them for that.
A screener is a different job. A shared link is the same for everyone who receives it, and it won’t tell you which of your recipients watched. A screener link should.
Who can see your film, and for how long.
Where your files are stored
Your film and materials are stored on FilmRelay’s own servers, inside your private workspace.
Who can see your film
Only people with your link can watch, and they need the password if you set one. The link stops working on the expiry date you choose.
No account for your recipients
The person watching doesn’t need a FilmRelay account. They open the link, enter the password if there is one, and watch.
Choose the workspace that fits your catalogue.
Start with Materials, Screeners or combine both in one workspace. Plans scale from individual filmmakers to teams and distributors.

FromFrequently asked questions
What is a film screener?
A film screener is a private copy of a film sent to industry professionals, such as festival programmers, distributors and journalists, before a public release.
Is FilmRelay free?
Yes. The free plan includes 1 film, 100 stored video minutes and 125 playback minutes a month, with no credit card required. Paid plans run from $6 to $209 a month, and you can see the prices in USD, EUR or GBP.
Does a recipient need an account?
No. The person watching opens your link, enters the password if you set one, and watches.
Can I limit how many times a link is opened?
Yes. You choose the limit for each link when you create it.
Who is FilmRelay not for?
FilmRelay is not for public video hosting or for showing a film to a general audience. It is for rights holders who send private links to industry professionals.
