Help with contests and marketing
 

I'm making some commercial and artistic shorts and would like some recommendations of contest for digital shorts. and also, is there a good list out there of houses that hire filmmakers and directors? thanks!

" good list out there of houses that hire filmmakers and directors"

if you want to do commercials .. then you go to production company's that produce commercials .. if music video's then company's that do music video's .. commercial/video house may have 3-15 directors and they are always looking for new talent ... many times producers of these company's may see a short at a festival and contact the filmmaker - send your shorts to big & small key festivals ...

in LA you would look in the 411 .. in SF the reel directory .. in your area ??
