I just found the NewTeeVee Metacafe Pier Screenings. It's a monthly event. Audience-voted winners get featured on Metacafe & also win a hard drive.
There's one Tonight - Tues 24th - at 6.30pm. It's in San Francisco, but anybody can submit videos. I have. Each screening has a theme. You can submit your own films that fit the theme to their Ning site at: http://screenings.newteevee.com/ and users will rate them. The six videos with the best ratings get screened at the event. And the top 3 that win the audience vote at the event get featured on Metacafe and get $5 per 1000 views. And win a big external hard drive. This month the theme is 'When Content=Advertising', focussing on commercial videos & videos that cross the line into advertising. Irina & Co are way out in front for the Doncha iPhone video (the Theme is being liberally interpreted) - which if you haven't seen, you should check out at the link above and rate it. It's great. I've also submitted my video of the scary poster that I set to Adam Quirk's Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime. If you feel like watching and rating it, that'd be cool too. You need to sign up with a Ning ID to submit videos, vote & rate - you can use the same ID you use on other Ning sites like Jetset's Mix. The event is tonight at 6.30pm at the Sony theater on 4th St in San Francisco. God. All I do these days is post things from NewTeeVee. I'm not being paid by them. Honest.
