[News] SXWS 2020 Short Films Online Starting Today!
Well this is fantastic news coming out of Mailchimp and Oscilloscope. SIXTY FOUR (!!) SXSW 2020 shorts are available right now on Mailchimp’s website. Eight of them are Midnighters which I know Gayly Dreadful readers will enjoy. I’ve also heard there’s some LGBTQ+ content. I haven’t had a chance to dig in, yet, because I just got this. But I couldn’t wait to get this out to you all! Check out this rad promo pic from Stucco and see the press release below.
SXSW has long been a champion of independent filmmakers, and premiering a short film at the festival is a one-of-a-kind opportunity for creators to share their vision with the world. When the City of Austin had to cancel this year’s festival, hundreds of filmmakers lost the opportunity for their work to be seen.
Together, Mailchimp and Oscilloscope Laboratories have created a digital home for this incredible slate of short films, so you can watch them wherever you are. While we can’t replace the camaraderie of the SXSW festival, watching these films is a way to support the artists you love and connect to the world around you, during a time when we could all use a little more connection.
