Make a Streamy Awards Promo



The 2010 Streamy Awards honor excellence in original web television and those who create it.

The annual ceremony will be live online from LA on Sunday, April 11. The official red carpet live stream starts at 4p pst.

It's a HOT NIGHT for NERDS.
 
We're feeling guilty about getting too many nominations (14). Time to put the spotlight on ALL good humans making the best in original video online. Magnanimus, huh?

We're asking all talented humans to make short promos for the Streamy Awards - to inspire more people to seek out the best original video on the web.

Two requests only. Keep your film in the :30-2:00 zone and include a graphic that says:

Watch the Streamy Awards LIVE
Sunday, April 11 at 5:30p PST
www.Streamys.org


We need your videos ASAP - NO later than Thursday, April 1 (yes - that day).

We'll feature many/most on My Damn Channel for 11 days leading up to the Streamys, 4/11.

If we ROFLOL, and experience deep, emotional sensations, you'll be all over the My Damn Channel home page and on our other syndication partners.

Get tech specs and learn how to send us your videos by emailing DAN here.
