Hi Tommy Tornroos!
We've got a lot of great news to share with you this month, so let's jump right into it.
Vimeo Festival + Awards News
Get Your First Look at the Schedule
| The first annual Vimeo Festival + Awards is nearly upon us, and you need to go check out all the great things we have planned for you. We have packed two days with talks, workshops and panels from experts, captivating screenings, and our biggest party yet. You can see the whole schedule on our Festival + Awards website, and believe it or not, we still have a few more fun things to announce. Grab your tickets while there is still an early bird discount at only $120 for BOTH days and we'll see you in New York, October 8th and 9th! |  |
Shortlisted Films Announced
It was a monumental task given the amazing quality of work submitted, but we narrowed it down to the shortlist top 20 in each category. Our panel of judges are currently reviewing these works and we'll be announcing the finalists September 21st. One of these filmmakers will be awarded a $25,000 grant towards their next project. Go check out the shortlist and then get your ticket to come to the Festival and see some of the films on the big screen.
New Features on Vimeo.com
Unlimited HD Embedding
| Big news is also happening on the website. In case you hadn't heard yet, we removed the limits on HD embedding for our Plus members. Now, when a Plus member embeds an HD video on an external site, that video is always viewable in HD. It's another step in our continuing commitment to showing your videos at the highest quality possible. Become a Plus member today to take advantage of this feature and many more. |  |
Auto-Share on Facebook and Twitter
| Guess what? Now you can link your Vimeo account to your Twitter and Facebook accounts right through your Settings page! New uploads will be pushed to those sites automatically, and you can also choose to share your Vimeo Likes so all your friends can see what impeccable taste you have. |  |
One Day On Earth
| If you haven't heard of the One Day on Earth project, it's time you did. On October 10th (10.10.10), people in every nation of the world will be documenting a topic that matters most to them over a 1 day period to contribute to a unique film and archive. Participants that contribute 1 minute or more will receive the film for free and access to the non-commercial downloadable archive. If you're game for a cool, easy and history-making project to participate in, this is the one for you. Join the United Nations, over 40 non-profits and many award winning cinematographers. Subscribe to the Vimeo channel and sign up to participate. |  |
Shooting People
| Vimeo has teamed up with Shooting People on their Film of the Month competition. Each month, the 3 top-rated filmmakers receive a Vimeo + account and have their work hosted on Shooting People's new Vimeo channel, which looks pretty sweet. Check these guys out. |  |
We'll have more exciting updates for you next month. See you on the Internet!
Love,
Vimeo
