A look into the Now Film Festival
NOW FILM FESTIVALThe 3rd annual Now Film Festival (NFF) harnesses the power of social networking sites such as MySpace and YouTube, as well as the influence of industry-type players in order to launch careers in Film & Video. NFF stands at the forefront of the new wave of media, connecting aspiring filmmakers with exceptional exposure. Each week leading up the Festival, selected films are screened online. So, the earlier you enter, the more exposure you will get.
Filmmakers accepted into the festival receive thousands of fans per week, prime industry exposure- a nod in Baseline Studio System's "First Look" Newsletter (read by countless A-list agents, Studio Executives, and Producers)-as well as a spotlight on Now Casting which carries a readership of over 70,000!
MoiveMaker Magazine describe the NFF as having "obtained the Holy Grail of online competitions". As such, NFF alumni have gained representation distribution deals, Academy Awards/Nominations, and honors at festivals such as Sundance, Cannes, and Tribeca.
