Add a bio, a reel, and your credits. Your page updates itself when a film is added to the archive or enters a competition.
Every SMU film that passes PREVO's screen is placed in the competition. Members vote across five categories; finalists go to the industry judges; winners are announced live at the Made at SMU night in November.
Standings update in real time during voting. Filmmakers share a personal link; anyone who joins through it can vote.
Judges to date: UTA, HarperCollins Productions, Media Talent Group, Miramax, Lionsgate, Buchwald, Lord Miller, Triangle Management Partners, Brillstein.

Filmmakers see every send. PREVO holds a streaming license only; every underlying right stays with the filmmaker.
A live evening, presented by the Spears Institute: SMU's entrepreneurs and filmmakers in one room, open to the Dallas arts and startup community. Finalist screenings, the judge panel on stage, winners announced live.

SMU keeps the masters. PREVO ingests from a shared drive; every film needs the filmmaker's opt-in before it goes live.
One page, twice a year: films archived, films premiered, audience reached, and which filmmakers converted an audience. Delivered as a PDF to the Dean, the Division, and the Spears Institute.
