Where to find interesting short films on the internet?

I'm developing a TV series (for a local TV station) that would show interesting short films from aspiring "internet" filmmakers from all over the world. The only problem is: whe dont have any money to pay them. So I'm looking for filmmakers who can allow us to broadcast their movies for free. I hope its realizable :)
Could you recommend me any websites/internet channels where could I find interesting short films with contacts to its filmmakers? I know about Vimeo and YouTube of course, but I would be greatful for any other recommendations.

Hi Greg, please don't make empty (link only) posts on this forum. Sharing
a link like the 48 Hour Film Project is fine, it's a great resource -- but please
have something to *say* about it. Thanks in advance,

Re: Where to find interesting short films on the internet?

I would love to have my movie broadcast, you can check it out here:

Local Hero (Short Film HD) - YouTube

we won a couple of awards and played at a handful of festivals, please contact me on www.supafraud.com or facebook.com/supafraud if you would like to discuss (also even though I have written permission or own the rights to all of my music, youtube is still blocking my video in some countries so let me know if you have trouble with that) Thanks and good luck!

You could check out the BBC's film network. BBC - Film Network

You'd have to talk to the film makers about having their films being on line for nothing, I think the BBC does pay a small fee.

The National Film Board of Canada is a large repository of films long and short.
Watch Documentaries and Animated Films Online - NFB.ca

A favorite of mine is the Capturing Reality: The Art of the Documentary series of interviews on the topic of documentary filmmaking where they interviewed over 60 famous documentary filmmakers from all over the world. In and of itself, that series is a fabulous example on variations of the black void for interviews
