Okay, so I love short films. In addition to appealing to ADD-afflicted by not requiring us to sit through 180 minutes to "understand the narrative," short films are more financially viable for indie filmmakers to create. The problem with short films is that you can usually only see them at film festivals -- until now.
YouTube has set up a virtual screening room to bring the short films of independent filmmakers to a global audience. Not only can you view top-notch shorts (curated by a YouTube editorial panel), you can also buy them to watch whenever you want on your computer or portable device. While the majority of these films have played at international film festivals, occasionally you’ll find films that have never before screened for wide audiences.
They just launched the screening room last week and plan to add four new films every two weeks. So, show the indie filmmakers some love and check it out!
