Please note: local work prioritized, though global work will be considered with video intro availability and understanding of the Connect project. However we urge non-local work to apply to the annual festival at: www.filmfreeway.com/festival/connectfilmfestival =Feature samples and narrative short films only= Connect with fellow filmmakers and enjoy great local work alongside national and international favorites. If Texas-based, at least one "filmmaker representative" must be in attendance-- they can have worked in any capacity of production or post production. From Actors, to sound department, camera department, makeup, editing, and of course Directors and Producers. Film will only screen with a filmmaker in attendance. If national or international a "video introduction" and accessibility through the connect email enables direct connection with our local filmmaker's community. Numerous sample videos available on request for selected filmmakers. Submit, attend, enjoy, connect!
