What’s the greatest frustration facing talented independent filmmakers today? Most would agree that it’s trying to stand out from a vast ocean of contenders and industry games and politics in order to get their films in front of an appreciative audience. The Internet once promised a democratic forum where the quality needed only to reveal itself and the deals would flow. Somehow things didn’t quite work out that way.
Until now.
Introducing OurStage – where the fans decide who rocks
OurStage is a brand new, 100% democratic means for emerging filmmakers and videographers to get their work out there, in front of those who matter most – the fans and industry groundbreakers. Artists upload their work at OurStage, where thousands of film-savvy fans and fanatics can view submissions and then vote on their favorite. Competition is open to pretty much all film categories ten minutes or less – animation, shorts, drama, comedy, action sports, my pet cockroach, etc.
Monthly winners take home $5,000
But here’s the true brilliance of OurStage: those who don’t win but still earn high ranking receive enormous exposure, the kind that launches careers. Because you never know who’s watching.
I urge you to post your best work now at www.ourstage.com/go/imagine
See you online,
the team backstage
P.S. OurStage will offer top ranking filmmakers and videographers various perks and awards from partners such as Gen Art, Paste Magazine, Independent Film Festival of Boston, Asbury Shorts, Film Threat, SceneFirst, Noise Pop, and heaps more – on top of the monthly five grand. So hesitate not, upload your best stuff now.
Good luck, and my best to you
