Hi Everyone,

Thanks so much for your interest in The Best of New Media.

The New Media Film Festival was held this past weekend in
Los Angeles at the Downtown Independent. 

It featured new media content, filmmakers and
professionals representing mobile, mobisodes, webisodes,
web series, shorts, documentaries and features
shot in RED and 3D.  

I moderated a panel on Saturday of Experts and Filmmakers in
New Media focusing on the Who, What, When & Where.  The
panel featured Greg Boren from Panasonic 3D, Ted Schilowitz
of RED Digital Cinema, Debra Kaufman of MobilizedTV.com
and Chuck Haifley of Big Vision Studios. 

Susan Johnston and her team of Jurors and Advisors
reviewed hundreds of submissions to program an excellent
event that featured the best across these categories and
bring together players in the space to talk about what's
new and what's next.

I am including the names of all the films if you
are interested in learning more about them or
