8 Tips for Submitting to Film Festivals: Inside Info from Festival Directors
Today we have some tips for submitting to film festivals. It's every filmmaker's dream to have their film accepted by a major film festival, but festival directors will often have hundreds of other films to go through. How can you make your film stand out and increase your chances of getting in? We have 8 helpful tips on how to submit to a film festival and how to get in to a film festival.

A great way to get accepted into a film festival is to look at local film festivals. Sure a local festival isn't at prestigious as Cannes or Tribeca, but being from the local area will greatly increase your chances of being accepted. It will get more eyes on your film and you may meet some local filmmakers you'd like to collaborate with.

One of the biggest mistakes many filmmakers make when submitting to a film festival is having their film be too long. If you're submitting a short film it's best to keep your running time under 10 minutes if possible, including credits. Festivals have hundreds of films to watch, and if your film is too long or doesn't grab attention right away, the festival will most likely skip over your film and move on. So make your cut as tight as possible and speed up your credits!
