Canadian Streamer CGP Spotlight Marks One Year With 1,000-Title Challenge

KITCHENER, Ontario - EntSun -- One year after launching CGP Spotlight, Canadian filmmaker and entrepreneur Jen Scott is celebrating the streaming platform's first anniversary with an ambitious new challenge. That challenge is acquiring 1,000 independent films and television productions by her 43rd birthday on March 13, 2027.

Launched on November 14, 2025, by Scott and co-founder Tazito Garcia, CGP Spotlight was created to provide independent filmmakers with more opportunities for distribution while connecting audiences with films and shows from around the world.

Over the past year, Scott has built the streaming platform from the ground up, expanding its availability across web, iOS, Android, Roku, Fire TV and Android TV. The platform has acquired approximately 50 titles from independent filmmakers and continues to grow its international catalogue.

What began as a vision to make independent entertainment more accessible has evolved into a growing streaming service with a unique approach to distribution. CGP Spotlight offers non-exclusive distribution, allowing filmmakers to retain ownership of their productions and continue distributing through other platforms.

The service operates without advertising, recommendation algorithms or autoplay, giving audiences greater control over their viewing experience. Its Creator Pool allocates 25% of eligible subscriber revenue toward creator compensation, with earnings based on qualifying viewership.

CGP Spotlight has also introduced TV-style scheduled programming alongside its on-demand catalogue, bringing a traditional television viewing experience to independent streaming.

"A year ago, we launched CGP Spotlight with a people-first philosophy, creating more opportunities for independent filmmakers and fixing as many audience frustrations as we could. I was tired of a lot of things this industry was doing on both sides of the screen and wanted to do my part to help fix what I could. My goal is to reach 1,000 titles by my birthday, and I'm inviting the independent filmmaking community to help make that happen," said Scott, Founder and CEO of CGP Spotlight.
