Will Screening My Film Online Hurt My Chances of Entering it into a Festival?
Some, but not all, festivals will not let your submit your film if it’s been screened to a wide audience online. If this concerns you, and you are participating in Shortfundly Screenings, please select the private option. You will still be able to password protect your film on your Vimeo or YouTube page and it will only been seen by the industry professionals personally vetted by Shortfundly.
While the option is purely yours, we recommend taking into account the likelihood that more festivals will be impacted by the Coronavirus. Our mission is to get you the exposure your short films, shows and digital content so richly deserve.
How Do Shortfundly Screenings Work?
We are providing dedicated online platform to connecting creators of films that are official film selections with industry professionals, with two screening settings:

A filmmaker can choose a private screening which means that their film is only available to be viewed privately (password protected if they chose) to hundreds of industry professionals vetted by Shortfundly including executives, distributors, production houses, artists, sales agents, managers, agents, producers, directors of development, financiers and more. If an industry professional requests an introduction to the filmmaker we will connect you. There is no fee on either side to participate.
- Public Screenings
A filmmaker can chose a public screening if they’d like their film to publicly be seen by anyone in Shortfundly’s network of over 1,00,000 short film and new media creative professionals, fan followers.
