However the sad truth is that many films fail to find their audience. There may only be a cast and crew screening and a couple of festival appearances before all your hard work is relegated to a single line on your CV or a short clip on a showreel.
Films die without distribution.
So far, so depressing. Exiled from the cinema, short films have headed off for new territories and are finding a new audience on the internet. As connection speeds increase and file compression improves, distributing and presenting films on the internet is becoming increasingly viable. Your short films can now be seen by a worldwide audience 24 hours a day. Build a permanent online presence for your film and you can provide the best viewing experience, together with supplementary information and whilst allowing your audience to contact you directly.
