Viral Video Award

The PR-Agency Zucker.Kommunikation and interfilm Berlin initiated the "Viral" festival category in 2008. Ever since, both have been busy organising the Viral Video Award and crowning the best 'viral' internet films around.

After 7 great project years we stopped the online-competition 2014, because the exciting time around viral films on the internet was over.

We annually called upon Filmmakers, bloggers, agencies and creative people involved in viral filmmaking and its propagation to recommend outstanding films for the Viral Video Award. Matthias Bonjer, Manager at Zucker.Kommunikation: "Word of mouth propaganda, viral marketing and open discourse with users are the essential elements of innovative communication in the Internet. We created this new festival category to honour the importance of viral films at one of Europe's most important short film festivals."

Desperately seeking films with a message. All entries should aim to communicate either a promotional, ideological, political or original message. Not more than two years old, the virals must be successful at spreading the net, or at least on the way to doing just that.
