We’re taking submissions on a rolling basis, so feel free to send us material whenever you like, and it’ll be eligible for the 2008-9 Awards. You might also want to sign up for the ‘Producer’s Handbook’ we’re preparing: http://www.planet-science.com/scicast/pack_signup.html — full of useful stuff, honest. Plus it’s really pretty.

Ultimately, we’re hoping the site will be both a reference and inspiration source for students and educators alike – hence the focus on films that are short, entertaining, and practical. Plus the process of making short films is itself valuable experience, we reckon.

Downloads and podcasts are ‘coming soon’ (they have been for months, but this time I really mean it… honest!), and we’re hoping to announce more partnerships later in the year.
