There’s no doubt about it: On-demand video streaming is the wave of the now, let alone the future, and that’s the wave your content needs to catch. But before you can sell your creation to Netflix, Hulu or Amazon (or hope to recoup your costs a dollar at a time through iTunes sales), you need to get “out there.” Here, we offer a rundown of the top sites to share your work, gain traction and maybe pick up a little revenue while you do it.

Basically the by-word for video hosting, the Google subsidiary offers ease of use for content producers and a huge potential audience. The Creators resources help you get started and keep growing. Videos can be uploaded in a range of definitions, up to 8K as of last summer, and viewed by people all over the world (excluding China, Iran and Turkmenistan), with localized site interfaces in 76 different languages.

$$$: Advertising, Paid Content

The preferred site for animation and VFX artists to show off their latest work, reels and shorts is rolling out 4K capability this year and has a Creator Services department in place to help you monetize content. TipJar has been retired, but Vimeo offers pay-to-view to Pro members, and the Brand Creative Fund encourages advertisers to pay community members for original branded content.

$$$: Paid Content

Started in France, Dailymotion has success- fully expanded internationally with 18 different languages available and 35 localized sites. It remains among the top video platforms worldwide and is the most popular site of any kind in Europe. Vivendi’s recent acquisition means this global takeover can only continue. $$$: Advertising, Paid Content, Website

Monetization

The online video destination from MakerStudios Inc. is all about propping up the next generation of media creatives. Creators who work with the Maker Gen program get handson guidance, community expertise and tools to help grow their audience — and retain control of their content.

$$$: Advertising

The 2012 merger of Youku and Tudou combined two of the largest video hosting sites in China under one corporate roof, but they still have different personalities. Tudou was a world pioneer in implementing wide scale ads on such a site and remains largely focused on user-created content, while Youku boasts over 1,500 professional content partners and offers full TV episodes and features. But both are subject to Chinese censorship and a laissez-faire approach to copyright law.

$$$: Advertising

This smaller player has been making waves in the indie film industry since it first cropped up a couple years ago. The goal is to directly connect viewers and creators, focusing on the future needs of digital film consumers while providing a customizable service for filmmakers. $$$: Paid Content, Merchandise Store,

Crowdfunding Compatible

Another filmmaker-centered newcomer, Renderyard is a tight-knit community of 6,000some members looking to share and sell their content. The social networking elements are designed to help users receive helpful, professional critique and connect with other creators. Renderyard also boasts a 70/30 revenue split with instant payment and a dedicated animation section.
