SHORTS SHOWCASE
2009/10
US Television Online
Ongoing The SHORTS SHOWCASE 2009/10 was established to provide short-form filmmakers with a crucial avenue of distribution, reaching millions of households, 24/7 for at least one month at a time. The Showcase features short films within a professionally produced television show and broadcasts them to millions of households within the Southern California area, and supplements this exposure with online viewings.
In addition to broadcasting selected short films, the Showcase includes select accompanying highlights and behind-the-scenes footage provided by the filmmakers. Best of all, films selected by the Showcase's committee of industry professionals receive substantial airtime, providing desired exposure to audiences. Each episode of the Shorts Showcase is available On Demand for up to one month and even longer online.
Many of the films selected for broadcast have the opportunity to submit for regional Emmy Awards consideration, and are eligible to win a grand prize of studio time and cash toward their next project. <http://www.withoutabox.com/watch/8273> <http://www.withoutabox.com/03film/03t_fin/03t_fin_fest_01over.php?festival_id=8273>
