New Media Film Festival provides platform for new-age content creators

New Media Film Festival started its journey in 2009. It was announced in Second Life and was part of the C3-United Nations-Millenium Project in the form of an annual event. Through this festival, the works of established and emerging New Media Content Creators and video artists from the US and abroad are showcased. 

CEO Ian McKee said: “It is now the right time to look at the digital marketplaces and digital events as a new model in these times. Digital technology is here to stay, and we must look for complementary models for different events”.

New opportunities are created to boost the creators outside the norm to keep up with the industry. With the help of the advancement in technology, the platform has been created for the creators to grow and develop their work. The New Media Film Festival is like a catalyst that helps in telling new stories using updated technology.
