Summer highlight: Tropfest
Tuesday, 15 February 2011
For the first time ever,
Tropfest
, the world’s largest short film festival, will have a 16th finalist as voted by YOU, the YouTube community. Your votes will determine which film will screen live on the night in front of hundreds of thousands of film lovers. That film will be in the running for the same awards and prizes as the rest of the Tropfest finalists.
Vote today at
youtube.com/tropfest
, all votes need to be in by Wednesday Feb 16th.
YouTube will also be at Tropfest on Sunday Feb 20th. We’ll capture the best moments from the day - from the walk down the red carpet, to the final moonlight screening, the announcement of the winners and the winning films.
If you’re at the Tropfest event on Sunday, come along to the YouTube Map My Summer tent and share your summer stories. We’ll be updating our
Summer map
with clips throughout the day.
