Celebrating 15 years of independent filmmaking
Since 2008, Vimeo has awarded the best videos on the internet coveted Staff Picks badges. They’ve launched careers, inspired millions, and raised the bar for what video can be.
Generation Vimeo celebrates the past, present, and future of Staff Picks with everything from global, in-person screenings and premieres to interactive mixtapes courtesy of legendary Vimeo filmmakers.

"I love that there's a platform without ads where people can just post their creative work. It's a very special community. I really love the Staff Picks, and whenever I'm kind of lacking inspiration, I just go and find a Staff Pick and watch that. Once your film is on Vimeo, it's like anyone can share it with anyone, and anyone can see it. Even people that don't usually watch short films."Armita Keyani

"I use Vimeo almost every day, in some way. Whether it's because a friend has sent me a film, or a Staff Pick, that's wonderful and I need to watch it for inspiration. Or because I'm uploading my videos, and using the review tools. I use it as a tool, a resource. Or if I need to find talent."Rayka Zehtabchi
