1. Video-On-Demand (VOD) is a method of film distribution where audiences can watch content digitally at their convenience, usually through platforms like Amazon Prime Video, iTunes/Apple TV, Google Play, Vimeo On Demand, and others.

2. Educational A/V (audiovisual) film distribution contracts govern how a documentary or film is licensed for use in educational and institutional settings—like schools, universities, libraries, nonprofits, and sometimes corporations. This market is distinct from commercial and VOD distribution and can be a valuable revenue stream, especially for indie and documentary filmmakers.

A hybrid distribution contract (or hybrid distribution strategy) refers to a model where a filmmaker retains control over some distribution rights while partnering with multiple platforms, aggregators, and/or service providers to maximize reach and revenue—instead of going all-in with one traditional distributor.

This approach is especially popular in independent film and documentary circles, where filmmakers often want to preserve ownership, data access, and marketing control.
