networks, talent agencies and production companies.
CAA packaging agent and head of alternative television

while Anthony Zuiker, executive producer of the CSI
franchise, will deliver the closing address.
This year, the new festival will feature competition
in six categories: animation, comedy, drama, mobile,
factual and unscripted.Entries can run a maximum of
six minutes.Grand prize winners get a cash prize, a
six month mentorship, two pitch meetings, inclusion in
the NATPE 2007 Video Wall and a complimentary NATPE

are creating this imaginative material as part of the
popular Boot Camp series,� says NATPE President and
CEO Rick Feldman.
