YouTube hit Lasse Gjertsen at Short Film Circle

Sunday's seminars started with the second annual Short Film Circle. Because of the internet the short film distribution has taken a dramatic turn.

 “A genre that was itself questioned and disintegrating became the most widely distributed and seen genre,” FkN director Karolina Lidin said.

The biggest problem in the short film distribution seems to be that the websites are eager to get more and more of short films on their sites, but no ones willing to pay big bucks for them. 

 Also YouTube hit Lasse Gjertsen told how he - 23 year old young man from Larvik, Norway -  made it big. Gjertsen’s YouTube channel is the 37th most subscribed channel in the site. He has 19 videos available in there and they have been downloaded for almost 17 000 000 times already!
