We have come to you on Vimeo so that you can share your talent with everyone.


Make Money. Make Movies.
81 YEARS OF BEST DIRECTORS. NO WOMEN.

No woman has ever won an Academy Award for Best Director and only
three have ever been nominated. The last woman nominated was Sofia
Coppola in 2004 for “Lost in Translation”. The overwhelming majority of
films seen today are directed by men. Even contemporary male directors
wonder why there aren't more female directors in the industry.

It's a complicated issue, but one thing is certain. We need to encourage
more women to enter the world of film through our financial support.

THE X-FACTOR FILM FUND IS HELPING
On March 22, 2010, X-Factor Filmmakers will
launch a film contest on Vimeo – FOR YOU.
Make a great short film of 5 minutes or less,
upload it for just $20 and win $1,000 to make
your next film!

The winner will be decided by “LIKES” from your
peers on Vimeo – a place where young
filmmakers already gather. This democratic way
of voting is very unique. Just like the Academy
Awards, your filmmaking skills are being
“LIKED” by those who understand the blood,
sweat and tears that go into making a film.

Anyone who has a Vimeo account (it’s free if you
don’t have one already) and loves to make
movies can enter. Simply make your payment at
www.xfactorfilm.com to be invited to join the
Vimeo Group, ‘X-Factor Film Contest’. Then
upload your film to be part of a new and exciting
short film competition.
