Metacafe launched its new “Director’s Cut” channel. The channel showcases short videos made for the interactive Internet medium that honor the art of storytelling and the craft of filmmaking. To qualify for “Director’s Cut,” videos must be narrative-driven, of high production value, and fall into one of the specified categories: Comedy, Animation, Documentary and Action & Drama.

“Short-form online video is a new genre of entertainment well-suited to today’s pace of life, enabling fans to enjoy a ‘media snack’ whenever and wherever they like,” said Erick Hachenburg, CEO of Metacafe. “The ‘Director’s Cut’ channel features some of the best original content in this new genre, short videos created and nominated by members of the vibrant Metacafe community.”

Videos showcased in “Director’s Cut” are chosen from those submitted to the Metacafe Producer and Producer Rewards programs. Registered members of the Metacafe community are invited to nominate or submit their favorite original videos for inclusion in the new channel.
