For filmmakers · Summer 2026
For the first time, the Showcase opens to filmmakers everywhere – every genre, students and professionals alike, documentaries included. If you made it, we want to see it.
Submit by July 5 to be in the running this summer. We accept films year-round either way.

Why submit to PREVO
Every film is reviewed before it premieres. Your work joins a curated catalogue – not an algorithmic feed where nothing surfaces.
When your film goes live, we tag you and your cast, and cover it editorially in The Weekend Read and First Frame. The premiere reaches the people who made it.
Members vote across all five categories, with a public leaderboard through the voting window. The most-voted film in each category becomes a Nominee.
Nominees go to industry judges – Spring's panel came from UTA, HarperCollins Productions, and Media Talent Group. They choose the winners and reveal them live in August, each with the reasoning behind the pick.
And you keep your rights. Our license is royalty-free, and you keep the right to sell your film directly to your own audience.
How it works
01
A link to your film or the file itself, a logline, and a few details. About two minutes.
02
Every submission is reviewed. If it's a fit, it joins the catalogue with a premiere. We follow up within seven days.
03
Members vote across the five categories. A public leaderboard runs the whole window; the top film in each becomes a Nominee.
04
The Nominees go to our industry panel, who select the winners across every category.
05
At the August ceremony, the judges reveal their picks on stream, each with the reasoning behind it.
What you'll need
A link to your film or the file itself · a one-line logline · runtime and year · your contact details. That's the whole form.
We review every submission and follow up within seven days. Questions? submissions@prevostreaming.com
Beyond the competition
We accept short films year-round for the general catalogue – no competition entry required. Same curated library, same audience, same editorial coverage in The Weekend Read. Films submitted after July 5 simply join the catalogue rather than this summer's Showcase.
A film link or file, a logline, and your details – the same short form.
The submission form, anytime.
Any filmmaker, any background, any genre. If it's a short film and you made it, send it.
No deadline. We review on a rolling basis and follow up with next steps.
I feel lucky to have Laid Bare placed next to so many bold, unique films from new creative voices. The PREVO team have curated and supported some serious emerging talent.
