Lance Weiler (http://workbookproject.com) collaborates with other DIY filmmakers to figure out how to self distribute their films. Lance didn't like the idea of distributors taking all his profits, and so distributed his films on his own. In this video he discussed discovery with other similar filmmakers. Discovery is about how to get an audience discovery your film.
One of the things you cannot do without as a self distributor is a large audience, starting with at least 1000 people, not counting only your friends. We see people get huge audiences with some crappy stuff they post on YouTube, so how hard can it be?
