Judging Process
All entries are reviewed for eligibility, viewed and initially scored by festival staff and invited jurists. From that process a “Finalist” list is developed. Finalist films are viewed and scored. All judging is completed prior to the actual festival.
Awards
All entrants will be notified on or before April 6, 2016. For publication purposes, entries selected as a Finalist will be required to supply three digital high resolution stills from the film and at least one digital high resolution photograph of the film's director. The Festival also requests publicity materials and a video trailer (if available). All of this material will be due ASAP. Publicity and press materials will not be returned.
