London Web Fest Welcomes Guest Judge Shona Auerbach

London Web Fest, an international online film festival celebrating everything short, today announced that BAFTA-nominated director Shona Auerbach will be joining its team of judges as a guest judge.

Previous guest judges have come from all film industry sectors and are at the top of their professions. Guest judges have included

Nick Coupe, Producer for the BBC, Channel 4, and Sky Arts;

Phil Lee, sound designer for Paramount, Fox Searchlight, and Universal; and

Kristin Atherton, actress for RSC, the National Theatre, and the BBC.

Each month, the guest judge donates their fee to a charity of their choice. Auerbach has chosen Orangutan outreach. Orangutan Outreach's mission is to protect orangutans in their native forests of Borneo and Sumatra while providing care for orphaned and displaced orangutans until they can be returned to their natural environment. They seek to raise funds and promote public awareness of orangutan conservation issues by collaborating with partner organizations worldwide.
