Something I have recently been considering is the possibility that we could submit our completed film to a Public Access TV station. This would allow our film to be seen by a much broader audience and would also aid in myself and Charlie "breaking in" to the mainstream film industry before we leave University.
Before I began my investigation into the matter to see if this was possible, I was already aware that my local television station; Notts TV based in Nottingham accepts independent films occasionally and shows them on their channel. Therefore, I decided to check out the Notts TV website first to see if that would lead me anywhere.
However, after checking the site, the nearest I could find to being able to submit short films was a page on Commissioning programs for the channel. HERE.
I did however also find a corporate email address to which I will contact and ask about getting our completed film put on Notts TV.
I also came across another public access channel based in New York called "Thirteen". Submitting to this channel would also be beneficial for us, as it would allow for there to be eyes on our product in a completely different country. It would be well-worth myself and Charlie investigating the possibility of us submitting to this channel in the future, as well as weighing up the pros and cons of us doing so.
