...that we haven't published a new film for a couple of weeks. This isn't because we don't care - it's because we do! We've been a bit tied up with helping out on this whole CANNESinaVAN thing! It's kinda taken things over a bit, so you might have to bare with us. Obviously Cannes 2007 is only little more than 2 weeks away and things need doing. Maaaaan, do things need doing! We'll be publishing the video blog from CANNES in a VAN, on the shallowSHORTS100 vcast during the festival, so keep an eye out for daily updates. If you would like to submit a film to the Podcast DOWNLOAD THE SUBMISSION FORM The shallowSHORTS Video Podcast - WHERE FILM IS DISCOVERED!

Congratulations to us! The SS100 Video Podcast celebrates it's first birthday this week and we are glad to have you with us. In our first year we've published more than 45 short films from all genres, budgets and nationalities. Each selected film is deserving of its place in the ever-growing global library of short-film, demonstrating how much exciting and original filmmaking talent exists around the globe. We endeavour in our second year, to continue giving exposure to those films which were made to be seen.

In May of this year, we will be involved in supporting our friends at CANNES IN A VAN when they take tons of shorts to screen at Cannes to a captive audience in their own unique guerilla cinema style. Look out for press and the soon to go live website - cannesinavan.com. There'll be a chance to screen your film in their selection and it's surely a chance not to be missed. Watch this space for news of what happens. Meanwhile, enjoy our slightly later than planned next film - published tomorrow, which will run for just over a week.

The shallowSHORTS video podcast - WHERE FILM IS DISCOVERED!

Due to the holidays, the next film to go live on the podcast will be on Wednesday 3 January 2007. Thanks for your patience and support. Shallowfilms

We're sorry if you couldn't download A Man In the Crowd this week. A technical hitch has occurred caused by some naughty gremlins. Because of this eventuality and the fact that we want to give every film equal exposure, we will run A Man In the Crowd for an extra week. Again, we're sorry for any inconvenience. Shallowfilms

If you made it to FILM JAM on August 23rd in London, you'll know it was a cool night with plenty of new films being screened, aswell as Bitesize Cinema's new selection and a shallowSHORTS100 compilation. In the upstairs bar, Djs played as projections showed a taste of what was happening downstairs. People were drawn in from the street by the huge window filled with moving images and a packed-out bar crowd. The next FILM JAMwill take place in a couple of months time (date to-be-confirmed). Meanwhile, send your ideas, opinions and films to the FILM JAM crew. Spread the word... we want to spread the love. Email: allears@filmjam.co.uk.
