FirstGlance Online Winner Announced!

The winner of the Shorts Online Contest
to be screened at FirstGlance Film Fest 11 Philly on Closing Night is...
The River on Randolph Street

We would like to thank all of the filmmakers who took part in the online event, and we believe you have proven that an online contest in partnership with a real world event can succeed.

Thank you for promoting and getting people excited about this new event we offer to shorts we are unable to program due to physical time constraints. One of the great things about this online event, is that it's open 24/7 to any registrants and we believe in the future that the amount of visibility for the online contest will surely eclipse any size physical venue.


Thank you and we look forward to seeing your next project at a FirstGlance Film Fest!!

After a little more than 2 weeks of the online shorts contest, we wanted to thank the filmmakers and the viewers, as we have seen an amazing number of registrations and views of these fine short films!! We are extremely happy with the feedback we are receiving, and are contemplating an even bigger event for next year!! With bigger prizes and more short films.
If you are a registered member, we ask you to take advantage of the contest and watch and vote for as many films as you can, it only takes a few minutes to watch each film and vote!!
