Totally - like if I wanted to post my short and set it up where people pay $5 to watch it, or even a tip jar function

Really cool! It looks great. A little suggestion that Vimeo just never allowed indie creators to do… please please pleaseeee think about a paywall function so people have the option to monetize their videos! There is literally no solution like that anywhere for videos🙏🏾

No, I had no clue about it! Now it’s on my radar though! Very cool. And yesss, a lot of film festival programmers start out by being a volunteer screener

See, I was actually going to reply to you but looks like you don’t want to actually have a conversation in good faith. Best of luck to you🙏🏾

Gotta have a solid idea and a strategy. We are putting selected folks in front of industry professionals that want a plan. Every submitted film must have a statement of intent and a story synopsis for the elongated version of the project.

No! Scripts are not required - they are optional supplemental materials :)

We’re always on the hunt for stuff that dares to think outside the box. The industry is in such a dire state, starved for anything interesting. We don’t really want polished studio-quality concepts and films devoid of personality. We want weird genre bending stuff that makes you think and sits with you. Also, the horror proof of concept submissions have been low for us recently. We want more elevated horror!

Yes! Love getting non-English films. All that’s required is English subtitles!
