VIRTUAL SPOT
We are very pleased to offer our filmmaker community a new opportunity to promote their films in our new virtual showroom (Virtual Spot). Every year we receive hundreds of films, but unfortunately, not all of them make it to the roster for the final competition. For this reason, we have created our own virtual screening room platform called “Virtual Spot.” At this platform, we will offer those films that were not officially selected at the festival, the opportunity to present their work to our virtual audience around the world. This platform will work on a membership format, and people will pay a monthly registration fee of $13.99 to watch all the films in our screening room or $1.50 dollars to watch a single film. This symbolic fee will help us pay to maintain the platform. Once this platform reaches a certain number of members, our intention is to share the profits with our filmmakers.
We thank all the filmmakers who have already agreed to participate in this new adventure, and we hope more filmmakers will sign up to participate.
