A very late call to the IAWTV – Streamy Awards!
Posted by Nick | Filed under Blog
OK I know that everyone has run their ‘For Your Consideration’ campaigns already and seeing as how the nominations are to be announced on Monday, this serves as a very, very late call to the International Academy of Web Television voters – but better late than never! Since January I’ve been in production and post production on a new 15 minute pilot, entitled Matchbreaker starring Sophie from OzGirl, so I’ve had little time to campaign! A little bit about OzGirl (http://ozgirl.tv), the series which will hopefully be up for nomination – we shot and released 23 episodes (105 minutes) last year on a measly $7 000. Most of the cast and crew were students (I myself was in 2nd year university) and almost all of us certainly had day jobs. It was a colossal challenge to produce the show, balancing all of our responsibilities, and a Streamy nomination would be a great bit of recognition for our efforts. I know it would mean the world to me and the cast and crew who worked tirelessly on this project if we were to be nominated (especially from half way across the world!). Below I’ve put a selection of clips and episodes which I feel represent the best of each individual’s contributions. But first, a “Making Of” video to give you a bit of insight into the making of OzGirl.
