Bronx, New York, May 6, 2010 - HollyHood Productions' N.Y. Short Buzz is a screening series of the hottest New York-themed short films in the country. We hope to engage and inspire diverse communities in the Big Apple by showing short films in parks, community youth centers, and college campuses. By bringing the short films of established and emerging artists to areas of the city that aren't normally exposed to them, we aspire to galvanize our audiences into telling and sharing their own personal and gripping stories. Another of our goals is to nurture a vivacious New York independent filmmaking community not only by exhibiting the work of these filmmakers, but also by providing opportunities for filmmakers to meet and connect with their audience. HollyHood Productions N.Y. Short Buzz is helping to keep this essential genre of filmmaking alive and flourishing in New York City.These film screenings are made possible by support from THE POINT, located at 940 Garrison Avenue, Bronx, NY 10474. THE POINT is a Community Development Corporation, a non-profit 501 (c) (3), dedicated to youth development and the cultural and economic revitalization of the Hunts Point section of the South Bronx. It works with its neighbors to celebrate the life and art of their community, an area traditionally defined solely in terms of its poverty, crime rate, poor schools and substandard housing. It believes the area's residents, their talents and aspirations, are THE POINT's greatest assets. THE POINT offers a multi-faceted approach to asset-based community development. Its' programming falls within three main headings - Youth Development, Arts and Culture and Community Development - all aimed at investing in the comprehensive revitalization of Hunts Point.
