Loading Docs Takes Off!

It's already been two weeks since Loading Docs launched and the response to the films has been amazing. Two films, The Jump and Living Like Kings were selected as Vimeo Staff Picks, attracting global attention for all of the films, which have appeared on top-ranking websites such as Laughing Squid, Digg.com, The World's Best Ever and Amy Poehler's Smart Girls at the Party, and the films have had over 250,000 plays on Vimeo.

Locally the films have been syndicated on The New Zealand Herald website and featured on The Wireless, Show Me Shorts Screening Room, Metro, Seven Sharp, 20/20 NZ, Radio New Zealand, Kiwi FM and many other publications, radio and TV shows and websites.

The feedback for the films has been overwhelmingly positive. Here's a small sample of the feedback we've received via Twitter:

"Privileged to watch these excellent @LoadingDocs films with the talented filmmakers behind them last night: loadingdocs.net #AllGood"

"There's a Kiwi in New York really missing home tonight after watching this great @LoadingDocs clip. A beaut: bit.ly/TS0XMn"

"Went to watch @LoadingDocs WAYNE and ended up watching all 10. Such range of use of the uber short form. Brilliant.wayne.loadingdocs.net"

"Every one of the 3 min docos on @LoadingDocs is brilliant. I laughed, I cried, I talked about them with my wife. loadingdocs.net"

"ADORED the @LoadingDocs films! You don't even have to leave home to see them like I did. They're free & streaming atloadingdocs.net"

"I think Loading Docs might be the best thing on the internet right at this moment. loadingdocs.net Beautiful format, lovely stories."

Thanks to everyone who has supported Loading Docs to achieve this success, and congratulations to all the filmmakers who are receiving such high praise for their wonderful work.
