The Manhattan Film Festival has utilized the ever-expanding digital environment to create a virtual model that brings filmmakers and audiences together in ways never done before. In 2007 we pioneered the first film festival to offer selection via a web-based competition. In 2008 we built off of our early success and created the first and only Virtual Film Festival. We later added a "Text to Vote" campaign in which festival attendees determined Audience Choice Winners via text messaging. Our creativity and forward thinking has helped establish us as a pioneer in the film industry. In 2011 our Virtual Film Festival will consist of the following:
• Our Signature Web-Based Competition
• Live Red Carpet Events
• Virtual Filmmaker Q & A’s
• Streaming Coverage of After-Parties
• Inside Coverage of Awards Show
• Behind the Scenes Making of the Festival
• Text to Vote Campaign
