About Mini Movie Channel

Mini Movie Channel distributes short comedy films via its website MiniMovie.com. The site provides free unlimited viewing of a collection of professionally produced movies that have been acquired or made in-house. In buying the online distribution rights to films, Mini Movie selects high-production-value works made by students or independent professionals, or that have been shown in venues such as film festivals. This selectivity serves the filmmakers and viewers as well as the site’s advertisers and sponsors.

Mini Movie’s original productions include a series with the comedy duo April and Christina as well as the Famous Face Productions. The FFPs are parodies that use a proprietary imaging technology to realistically combine the actual faces of celebrities with the bodies and voices of actors performing in comical situations. The Lost Screen Tests: Samuel L. Jackson video is a popular parody of the movie star auditioning for the lead role in Titanic.

Mini Movie is a subsidiary of Mini Movie International Channel, which has headquarters in Luxembourg and offices in Paris, Munich, Moscow, and Beverly Hills. Founded in 2008 and launched at the Cannes Film Festival, Mini Movie is owned and operated by award-winning Russian film and TV producer Dmitry Lesnevsky. In June 2008, Lesnevsky acquired the German TV channel Das Vierte from NBC Universal, with plans to further expand and diversify the collection and distribution of short films.
