Tropfest to be shown live on SBS2 annually
The organisers of one of the world’s biggest short film festivals, Tropfest, has signed a five-year agreement with SBS. The agreement means the festival will be shown on SBS2.
Tropfest was screened on SBS1 in February and garnered 181,000 – well below the expected numbers and placing it 50th on its night.
The announcement:
What films will they show?
Filmmakers have wised up to what Tropfest is about.
The worm has turned but it appears not to be about the filmmakers. I look forward to a night of 5 minute iPhone videos on SBS.
