Toms River Film Festival

As Toms River Film Festival promotes mindfulness environmentalism and sustainability, we will accept NO PHYSICAL SCREENERS. All entries must be submitted online through Vimeo or FilmFreeway.

Film must be completed after December 31, 2018.

Each entry must be accompanied by its own entry form and fee.

Filmmakers are welcome to submit works-in-progress but note we will only review one cut. If you’d like to submit a revised edit, you will need to resubmit with another application and fee.

To receive a student discount on FilmFreeway, the filmmaker and/or film must be registered as a student project. Students must be, or have been, enrolled in an accredited school (K-12, undergrad, graduate) at the time of production. You do not need to be a student currently to submit your film.

Toms River Film Festival does not require any premiere status.

Your submission confirms that Toms River Film Festival has permission to exhibit your film during the festival. You give permission for TRFF to use titles, images, copy, and other production information from your film for promotional purposes. You agree that your submission is not subject to any litigation nor is threated by any litigation and you hold TRFF harmless from any and all claims of liability resulting from your entry. You own or have authorization to all necessary copyrights and licenses and will provide documentation upon request. You agree to take on all copyright liability in regard to your film submission. You give permission for TRFF to provide copies of your film to their film jurors for the purpose of determining film awards. You also give TRFF permission to provide excerpts from your film to the media for promotional purposes and copies of your film for review purposes only. Submission fees are non-refundable.

Fee waivers will not be granted as it takes much funding to run a film festival, so kindly refrain from asking.
