Enter the Summer ShowcaseFor Filmmakers Summer 2026
The deadline just moved to July 20. The past week brought more submissions than any week in PREVO's history, and we don't want anyone finding us right now to barely miss it. If you've been meaning to enter, you have two more weeks. If you already have: you've got a head start.
For the first time, the Showcase is open to filmmakers everywhere – every genre, students and professionals alike, documentaries included. Subscribers vote the finalists through. From there, films go to industry judges – the agents, producers, and executives who can actually move a career. Spring's panel came from UTA, HarperCollins Productions, and Media Talent Group.

Our inbox just had the busiest week in PREVO's history. To keep every new film eligible for the Summer Showcase, the deadline moves to July 20 – and voting opens the moment submissions close.
The Weekend's Releases · Nicolas James
Supergirl is a major flop; there's no doubt about it. The question is: did it deserve to bomb this badly? Or was it just a victim of Toy Story 5, the World Cup, a heat wave, and America's 250th? Nicolas James investigates.

Last week, Anthony Fallow argued the Gentleminions were a happy accident no studio could summon on command. This week, Universal tried anyway. Find out how it went.
For Filmmakers
Most shorts vanish when the festival run ends. On PREVO they get a permanent home and an audience that keeps showing up.
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.

Each season, PREVO runs a film competition. The Summer Showcase — our most open competition yet — accepts short films of any genre from filmmakers at every level, including documentaries. Accepted films are added to the platform and put to a subscriber vote across five categories: Best Picture, Acting, Cinematography, Writing, and Music. Live tallies are visible in real time. The top-voted films in each category advance to a panel of entertainment industry professionals for final judging, with winners announced at a livestreamed awards ceremony.
Email your film (or a private link) to submissions@prevostreaming.com along with a short logline and any posters or stills you have. PREVO accepts submissions from filmmakers of all backgrounds year-round — the Summer Showcase has a July 5 deadline, but general catalogue submissions are always open. We screen every film before it goes live and follow up within seven days.
Short films, almost exclusively — indie and student work that's been screened before it premieres here. Most submissions come through film festivals, which means the catalogue skews toward films that have already been recognized somewhere. You'll find drama, documentary, experimental work, and everything in between. If it's good and it fits, it's on PREVO.
