Traditional poster art can be submitted in the form below, please set your image to 1920x1080px for an exact fit. Portrait art can also be submitted, but you must send a landscape image with your submission.

Expenses:

The film festival is free to the public to maximize audience sizes, this means very little revenue to cover costs, most of which comes from sponsors. As a result, we cannot offer funds to offset travel or lodging costs for your attendance at the event. However, we are sending requests to the local community to host a filmmaker as a way of building cultural exchange and save on your lodging and transportation for those attending the festival. Send us an email if you wish to be added to the list of filmmakers seeking hosting from local families in Orlando, Florida. (Most will only be able to offer the time period of the festival or a few days beyond.)

NOTE: If you have trouble uploading details through the form, please email [email protected] Several are uploading at the same time due to the selection announcement and it may be causing too much traffic on our system. It’s always best to try again later, but you can email us as well with everything asked for on the form below.
