Samsung & The New York Television Festival (NYTVF) have launched the Second Screen Storytellers Contest to provide indie producers and production companies with the opportunity to compete for a guaranteed production budget of $300,000 to create an original short series with accompanying second screen material. The winning selection will debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2013 and will then be exclusively distributed via Samsung Smart TVs and Galaxy devices.

We are working with NYTVF to give Samsung Second Screen Storytellers contestants access to content in our library for their submissions. They can utilize footage from the world’s leading media companies such as BBC Motion Gallery, Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures Entertainment, MGM Studios, HBO Archives, and National Geographic.

To take advantage of this special offer, contact a T3Media sales representative at (877) 394-1580 or send an email with your name and phone number to sales@t3media.com. Be sure to mention “NYTVF/Samsung Contest” to get set up with a special account. To start browsing our video library, visit www.t3licensing.com.
