New Form Digital Greenlights 11 More Short Films
Our Take:
Digital video production company New Form Digital, which counts Discovery Communications, Brian Grazer and Ron Howard as founders, has given the greenlight to 11 more short films in its “Incubator 2 series.” We interviewed the company’s chief creative officer Kathleen Grace after the first set was announced, who speaks about the mission and creative criteria for choosing filmmakers. The new “digital native talents” tapped for this round have built-in social and digital followings and each will again feature an appearance from YouTube personality Mitchell Davis.
10:31 (Ryan Finnerty): Silent Death, the ultimate YouTube pranksters, set out to blow up the Internet with their Halloween #prankyourex series. The tables turn when a rival prank gang starts pranking them back and it turns deadly. Starring popular YouTube personality Lauren Elizabeth & Viner, Allegra Masters.
