The #VOFF is an international online event that attracts, displays and rewards series, short films, features, web series and project-teasers that are not always as famous as they should be.

The #VOFF is a community moderated contest. Millions of viewers will create a short list out of all qualified entries. The #VOFF Jury of Experts (led by Ted Hope) will review the short list and choose the three final winners of the festival.

Love has never been easy. Relationships are tricky so show us the good, the bad and the ugly and compete for awards totaling USD$100,000. For the second edition of #VOFF, we invite all films, series and project teasers longer than three minutes with the theme “Relationship Status: It’s Complicated”

How It Works

We’ll be putting together a new revised voting system for #VOFF 2, but essentially the Viewster community and your fans will watch, comment, share and vote for their favorite entries. They will help to curate the entries with at least the top ten moving onto the finals. After that our Jury of Experts - Ted Hope, Nora Tschirner and Timo Vuorensola - will select the winners to be announced July 7, 2014 on http://festival.viewster.com
