 Arthur Cohen and Richard Witkowski did not waste any time when they came up with the idea of founding Iklipz in early 2006. Ninety days after their original conversation, the stanley cup  site was up and running, allowing film-makers to upload their own works free of charge and participate in an online film community through a member profile  iklipz . We had the idea for a MySpace for independent film-makers and we had to get up and be rele stanley website vant - and fast - or else someone else would pre-empt the window,  says Cohen.He might seem an unlikely champion of home-made independent movies. From 1989-2003, Cohen worked at Paramount Pictures, most recently as president of worldwide marketing. His credits include Titanic and Forrest Gump. But Cohen was looking for new challenges and he had a particular fascination with making something work on the internet. I m personally fascinated by the internet. I don t think it s 10% of what it is going to be in the future,  he says.  In regards to Iklipz, it started because of the 7,000 movies which apply to Sundance, only 130 get in. Where do the rest go  We thought that if the film-makers could post them for free on a website, it was better than the film being in your desk drawer whether you were viewed on the site by 1,000 people or 100. Cohen teamed with Witkowski, who is president  stanley usa and founder of iPoint Advisors, a business consulting firm in New York City, and the two engaged a lawyer and designer in return for stakes in the company.
