RIGHTS, SECURITY & DRM

How do I know if a festival is legitimate?

Before submitting, filmmakers should review the festival's website, history, contact information, past events, and filmmaker reviews.

CineLot encourages transparency and provides tools that help filmmakers make informed submission decisions. However, filmmakers should always conduct their own research before submitting to any festival.
