How it Works

We’ve organized the Film Festival to be a fun and entertaining event, whether you’ve entered a film for competition or simply want to enjoy watching the submissions and participate as a member of the voting public to help determine the winning films.

  1. Submit Your Film (2020 or Newer)

    Submitting a film is quick and easy. Simply visit the Submit A Film link below, carefully read and accept the rules, fill out the required information, and paste the YouTube or Vimeo link to your film. Submissions will be accepted until 2/28/23

  2. Watch and Share

    Film entries will be uploaded to their respective category sections on this page in batches as we receive them. Visit frequently to view submissions and if you’ve entered a film, tell your friends and followers to generate awareness in preparation for the public voting period.
