Atom.Com Review

Jonathan Lim
Referring to themselves as a comedy Web site, focusing primarily on video content, Atom.com is comparable to that of youtube, except they have been around for the last ten years, 5 years longer then youtube. Formally Atom Films.com is a next generation entertainment company now linked to the notorious comedy central. You may have heard of them!

Atom's Web site is a prominent part of the company's strategy to bring unique "instant" entertainment experiences to large consumer audiences. Atom's fun and comprehensive site offers weekly online film festivals - movie screenings in both low- and high-bandwidth streaming formats - featuring audience participation through ratings and reviews. In addition, Atom's site offers in-depth information about Atom's films and filmmakers, e-commerce capabilities, independent film news and resources for business-to-business customers.

Atom acquires the best short content available by scouring film festivals, building relationships with filmmakers and animators, and working with top film schools and online content creators. Atom's shorts come from today's most talented, innovative directors and feature some of the industry's hottest stars, including Matthew McConaughey and Neve Campbell. The company's distinguished catalog of exclusively licensed titles includes 1999 Academy Award nominee Holiday Romance, film festival hits from around the world, and cutting-edge digital animation.

Atom.com provides easy to excess content through its channel tab. There you will be able to direct yourself through the Web sites infinite content and trust me they never fall short of sheer comedy. Which brings me to my next point. Week after week Atom has a feature that pits one film against others like it. The showcase tab would be able to walk you through the rules and regulations but it does not end there. Yes it is a weekly competition, a film festival if you will. Acquire enough votes and you may find your film featured on Atom TV and comedy Central. I would then have to lead you to the Atom TV tab and you will be directed to a banner that reads 'Every Monday at 2:30 a.m. on Comedy Central. Get pumped - cuz new episodes begin June 15!' Listed below is the line up for the latest short films and animation to be featured on Comedy Central. Have a laugh! Check it out!

One question though, Do you think you are funny? Got a funny Video? Then upload your own video onto Atom.com and go head to head with comedic content from all over the world. And this time it won't just be for the satisfaction of your work being watched. Instead winners get their accounts upgraded to pro status, the glory of being featured on Atom TV and $500 cash. Looks like Filmmakers have found a new platform!
