You could be screening your film in the the heart of the San Francisco Bay area in the beautiful theater district of downtown Redwood City, California. We are looking for BRAVE STORIES, feature films and shorts, animation, digital Series, music videos and live action narratives and documentaries that showcase Bravery! We invite you to submit your films, stories characters, points of view and craft that would be a great showcase in our fest. We want to celebrate films in all genres that bravely explore how we think, how we live, how we interact with others and how we see the world anew. We're looking to elevate brave voices by those who make films and tell stories.
(We will have special panel discussions on filmmaking and we are excited to host a young filmmaker panel discussion and showcase student work).
STAY TUNED for celebrity guests, social media ambassadors, and hosts!
Brave Stories change the world and we want to celebrate YOURS with live screenings, red carpet, Q&A's, networking events, workshops and parties. Submissions exclusively on FilmFreeway.
Our Festival will be screening all films in DCP the industry standard playback format for digital cinema (and some in .mov format).
The BraveMaker Film Festival has partnered with Simple DCP to handle all film print
deliveries this year. Simple DCP will offer our filmmakers a 20% discount on DCP creation services and complimentary archival services. There will be no charge for filmmakers who submit a compatible, pre-existing DCP to Simple DCP.
Whether you submit a current DCP to Simple DCP or have your DCP created with Simple DCP, your DCP can also be quickly and affordably delivered to other festivals and venues. Every DCP in the Simple DCP archive will be integrated into partner festivals free of charge.
For this year’s BraveMaker Film Festival, Simple DCP will collect, create (if necessary), test, and ship all DCPs to our exhibition venue in an organized and efficient fashion.
