Rules & Terms
ALL DEADLINES ARE RECEIVED-BY DEADLINES. All materials must be received by the deadlines listed, NOT postmarked by that date.
GUIDELINES:
Filmmakers are welcome to either submit a FilmFreeway online screener or send us a DVD or Blu-ray disc.
We strongly advise filmmakers to submit a password-protected link of their film IN ADDITION to their FilmFreeway online screener or DVD submission. Please include the link in the Cover Letter section of your FilmFreeway submission page, or email it to us at damon@indiepossible.com by referencing your FilmFreeway tracking number. Once again, the online link is only a supplement to your official submission screener (DVD or FilmFreeway online screener)
If you are mailing a DVD to us, please send your film in a paper DVD sleeve. When packaging, protect the DVD in a padded envelope, or similar package. Please DO NOT send your dvd in a slim, jewel, or standard DVD case. We also advise that you purchase tracking for the shipment of your submission DVD to ensure that we receive it on time. Film submissions are non-returnable. Please do not send original materials.
Please note that the ONLY difference in the early submission deadline versus the final submission deadline is the fee discount. The submission process and consideration by the Programming Committee is not affected by the date you submit your film as long as it is received by our final deadline! We appreciate, however, filmmakers submitting their work as early as possible.
SELECTION:
Indiepossible 2016 films will be selected by the festival programmers. All selections will be posted on our site by April 1st, 2016.
ALL films submitted to the festival are seen and scored by two different programmers. All films that have a higher average, or are a favorite of a programmer, go on to final deliberations. Indiepossible selects its films by majority vote and nothing is offered early acceptance. All decisions are final.
If a film is accepted, a complete press kit and an online link to your film will be needed as soon after notification as possible. Indiepossible cannot be held liable for your exhibition print/video materials which are lost or damaged.
Please note that Magic of Story is not associated with the evaluation of screenplays for the competition, but only acts to support your work. The script coverage you receive will have no bearing on the final decision on your work. All submissions remain in contention and under full consideration for the competition.
