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.

Expect film festival spam As others have said. After successfully using Filmfreeway, I now receive an un-ending quantity of spam from film festivals I've never heard of. Multiples per day. After posting this review, Film Freeway deactivated my account and threatened to sue me.

Filmfreeway is always good. Customer support is second to none. Filmfreeway is a great way to find festivals and contests and is a one stop shop for the whole procedure. I have entered many festivals through Filmfreeway leading to major successes with two of my short films and three of my scripts.

SO MUCH SPAM!!! There are very few festivals on FilmFreeway that are worth your time and effort; I spent about a $1000 USD in total and nothing good has come of any of it! The festivals are haphazardly put together, a lot of woke festivals where you have to meet every DEI marker and because I rely on good work, not those markers, I don't believe my work is viewed. I receive continuous spam in my email from garbage festivals that are just wanting my money, so much spam that it's too much to even comb through to see if there are legit festivals that would be worth my money. JUST PASS, don't waste your money!

Disclosed my private email to mass spammers and scammers To get ahead of FilmFreeway on this, who seem to be waging a war against people who speak up - my name is Cadance Bell, an author & filmmaker from Australia who made the grave mistake of using the service in 2020. Since that time I have received many hundreds of spam emails for film festivals - most of which are scams or a notch above. I never requested to be signed up to any email lists and I never imagined that a company would divulge my sensitive & private contact details in this way. If you are a professional in the industry and want your identity and communications protected; avoid FilmFreeway.
