“This is a golden opportunity for producers of South African content to access a well-visited platform on which to showcase their talents. We're hoping the next generation of content producers who are currently amateurs will see this as that big opportunity to take them to the next level,” said VIDI spokesperson Janene Matsukis.

VIDI, launched commercially in 2014, is emerging as a well-known supporter of South African video content. It is a sponsor of the Independent Mzansi Short Film Festival (IMSFF), a four-day short film celebration. IMSFF 2015 screened some 20 hours of short films from up-and-coming directors and producers in South Africa during June 2014.

VIDI is also committed to bringing the problem of illegal content downloads via the web to the fore and has recently launched a publicity campaign aimed at encouraging South African web users to ‘keep it local and legal’.
