ShortsTV, the TV channel for short films, offers you the opportunity to pitch your new short film project during the competition The Pitch during the 34th Netherlands Film Festival. The winner receives a €5,000 production budget, a premiere on television plus professional guidance from ShortsTV. In addition, the winning pitch will be promoted on Cinecrowd.nl in order to realize an additional budget of €5,000 via crowdfunding for the project.

You get 2 minutes and 15 seconds to present your idea for a next short film project on camera, in one take, live at the NFF, supplemented with a 45 second reel of previous work. That's your pitch. It will be posted on ShortsTV's Facebook page (Facebook.com/ShortsTV) where the public can vote for their favorite pitch. The five pitches with the most votes are presented to a professional jury, which chooses one winner from these five.

This is the third year that ShortsTV organizes The Pitch in the Netherlands together with the Dutch Film Festival. We are proud that no less than two former Pitch winners can be seen with their short films during the NFF. Rob Lücker's film 'Das Wad', winner of the first The Pitch NFF, will premiere during the festival and Emiel Sandtke's film, winner of The Pitch Leuven 2012, 'The Biggest'.

Do you also want to see your pitch premiere? Sign up for The Pitch before Sunday 14 September! For more information, visit ShortsTV http://eu.shorts.tv/page.php?id=144.

The pitch days are September 25 and 26 and open to the public. The winner will be announced during the NFF Talk Show on Thursday 2 October.
