April Tubefilter Web Television Meetup Rocks Hollywood

Thanks to all the nearly 600 web television folks who came out to last Friday’s Tubefilter Hollywood Web Television Meetup at Avalon Hollywood. Tubefilter’s Web TV Meetup is continuing to gain momentum and has inspired spin-offs across the country and in Canada. Are you interested in starting a Web Television Meetup in your area as well? Let us know and we’ll get you set up—go to webtvmeetup.com to get started.

AJ Tesler and Jenny Starnes presented on behalf of the Independent Television Festival, a festival for independently produced, original and innovative television pilots and web series. The early deadline for Web Series and TV Pilots is today, so apply here now for early submission pricing.

Again special thanks to our evening’s sponsor Metranome, makers of Poptiq and cool iPhone apps for web series, and thanks to Avalon Hollywood for providing such a great venue!

We gave away some door prizes including a Sony PSP, Final Draft software, and Sony Vegas Editing Software. Here is a list of all the web series trailers we screened at the meetup:
