SERIENCAMP FESTIVAL AWARDS
OFFICIAL COMPETITION AWARD:
A high-profile jury of industry representatives selects the best contribution from our competition, which features six shows nominated by SERIENCAMP for the award as the best international series of the year.
→ WINNER: LOST BOYS & FAIRIES
DIGITAL SHORT FORM AWARD:
Various contributions curated by SERIENCAMP from the broad field of web and short-form series are competing against each other here. A four-member expert jury selects the best production of the year from our picks.
Considering how limited the budgets and prominence of those involved in digital short-form productions usually are, one must almost consider the ostensibly "smaller" series format as the greater art form. Its great achievement lies in its limitation to essentials while also making these limitations barely visible.
The short-form series we have selected as examples are masterful in (not only) this regard. One thing is certain: One of the short-form series will receive the DIGITAL SHORT FORM AWARD awarded by our expert jury.
