Openfilm Vs Youtube
The site showcases a fast-growing collection of high quality live-action and animated films displayed in high resolution. Openfilm provides a venue for users to watch premium video content, as well as for filmmakers to exhibit their works. Openfilm also takes a full-service approach to its members and visitors including a full-featured social networking forum between viewers and creators, reviews and blogs, coverage of industry events, and an online database of film festivals. Openfilm is focused on ‘user-generated films’ – original, high-quality live-action and animated videos with high production values and artistic merit, from shorts and web series to feature-length films. We are closing the gap created by sites where anyone can upload anything and sites that primarily showcase network TV and Hollywood movie content. Openfilm also provides a rich social networking environment:
- Video recommendations and reviews by Openfilm editors who strive to provide some insight into the filmmaking process and highlight the creativity of the contributors;
- Staff blogs sharing some sought-after production knowledge, covering an industry news item or just plain venting about life where users are welcomed to leave their comments;
- Comprehensive, modifiable database of film festivals past, present and future. [Source]
