2008 MNTV Guidelines Available!
MNTV is a three-part series of short films made by Minnesota filmmakers and aired on Twin Cities Public Television. Walker Art Center Film and Video Department, IFP Minnesota, TPT, and Intermedia Arts have teamed up to produce the 2008 MNTV season. The Jerome Foundation provides the funding for the program.

The goal of MNTV is to provide a television broadcast venue for short-form film and video makers and to nurture an audience for their work. The MNTV program often represents the first time local filmmakers are compensated financially for the projects they produce and direct. Licensing fees between $500-$1000 are paid to the filmmakers for the broadcasts on TPT.  Click here for more info or download the 2008 MNTV guidelines
