4th Annual NYWIFT Online Shorts Festival, Submissions Deadline 11/13
New York Women in Film & Television has partnered with Go IndieTV and iWomanTV to showcase the work of our talented membership through our 4th Annual NYWIFT Online Shorts Festival.
Members are invited to submit their short or mid-length films, TV pilots, and webisodes for consideration.
NYWIFT was founded in 1977 by a handful of women who saw a pressing need in New York for a networking and education forum for women in the entertainment industry. Over 40 years later, NYWIFT’s diverse membership is now more than 2,500 strong, made up of women and men who work in all aspects of television, film and digital media, from behind-the-scenes to in front of the camera to the executive suite.
Help us celebrate you, our talented members, by submitting projects for inclusion in the 4th Annual NYWIFT Online Shorts Festival, which will begin airing in January 2021 on GoIndieTV (website, Vimeo, and Roku) and iWomen TV.
New this year: Selected films will be eligible for iWomanTV’s Audience Choice Award, the winner of which will receive $2,000!
