Filmmakers have a huge responsibility on themselves of creating films that connect and impact the audiences so powerfully that they desire to see more from your side. The one thing that needs to be done is choosing the right film festival to deliver your best work. Deep Focus Film Festival is one such film festival that offers independent filmmakers an amazing platform to deliver their talents. Giving yourself to such an amazing film festival will not only boost your confidence but also make you understand the reaction of the audience in a very thoughtful manner.
How to choose the right film festival?
- Where is the festival: The festival experience is great and you definitely want to try to attend your screenings. It's a good idea to apply to every legit festival you can easily travel to. This is not to suggest that festivals that far away do not apply to you. Festivals enjoy watching films from as many countries as possible. For a decent mix of mostly close and some far, you want to apply.
- Rules for submission of the film: Do they consider only films produced after a certain date? Do only films made by students embrace them? What are their criteria for length? You would waste your money if you do not meet their criteria.
- What genres does the festival screen: Take a look at past choices and see if they suit your movie. Don't send a short horror to a festival that only shows documentaries! If there are no celebrities in your film and the festival mostly screens high-budget celebrity movies, your chances of acceptance are very low and you're going to waste your money.
- How do film festival judge submissions: To see if they post a FAQ or other detail about how they judge applications, look at their website. Not all legal festivals have this, but if they do, it is a very positive indication. You want to avoid festivals that apparently have only one or two judges, as all entries are unlikely to be watched in full.
