Don't bother—go to festivals directly FilmFreeway is basically a junk mail machine that shares your email address with hundreds of fake and pointless "online festivals" who again share it with others, and if you should ever try to submit a film to any of them, don't expect to hear back. If you've put blood, sweat and money into making a film, don't just lump it into an aggregate website; carefully select the festivals you want to submit it to and go to them directly. If they have a FilmFreeway link on their site, stay well clear.

FilmFreeway is an excellent company and … FilmFreeway is an excellent company and website to deal with. As a Film Festival we use their website to receive submissions from Film-makers all around the world. The site is easy to navigate, has adaptability, custom forms and features that can be changed but also their customer service is second to none. Within twenty four hours I have always had a response to my queries and more than that - quick action when things need to be addressed. I'd highly recommend FilmFreeway either as a film-maker or as a FilmFestival

Filmfreeway is far superior site to all… Filmfreeway is far superior site to all the others. Its great to navigate and edit your film and profile, the layout is great, its very easy to find the information you need. Blows the others away by a mile. It is much easier to put all the material in one place than to send all the material to different festivals all the time. I like the filtering possibilities where you look up festivals, which makes it easier for a fairly narrow film to find the festivals that may be relevant. As well as the ability to update the page easily and follow the film’s statistics.

Started out a great site but not anymore Started out a great site and alternative to WithoutAbox. However the site seems to have turned into a list of spam festivals that are virtual and all they appear to do is collect your money. People need to do more research on their own and submit directly to festivals if they can. Film Freeway can crack down on the useless virtual festivals if they want but they choose not to.

they don't support the writer they don't support the writer. if a festival doesn't hold up to its side of the deal there should be refunds. there should always be refunds before script is read. honestly if you're entering a film festival and they keep the judges names private it's BS. i've won over 40 times on filmfreeway and literally nothing happens except i've spent a ton of money for nothing. also most of their festivals charge you for awards. my suggestion: stick to the big festivals. save your money to make movie instead of betting these smaller festivals will help.
