We are not responsible for winners missing opportunities because of failure to receive or read emails.
Becoming an "Official Selection" means your entry passed through the first judging stage,
(DID NOT get rejected) now being able to go in front of the AWARD judges to
decide the type of award (s) it will receive, if any.
Being Officially Selected does not mean your film is scheduled for live screening.
SFHAIFF is a live screening festival and virtual competition:
We invest in getting distributor recognition for quality films to give them a
life beyond a one-time festival showing.
We screen Best of Festival winners only, at the Cinema Art Theater screening event in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.
Long-term screening opportunities are available on WRPN.TV
Entertainment Network (optional)
There are no events, questions-and-answers, or after-event
parties. We do on-camera interviews with a few viewers, provided they are
willing.
All others are invited to screen online at WRPN.tv
(optional)
Award email notifications will be sent the week
of November 23, 2024 and
Best of Festival winners will be invited to have their film showcased
at our
2024 live event at the Cinema Art Rheater, Rehoboth Beach, DE
Also,
DISTRIBUTOR REVIEW by Worldwide Motion Pictures Corporation (WWMPC.COM)
for features, Adler & Associates for features and shorts, Cardinal
XD, CCS Releasing, and Polaris Pictures (for screenplays) for our
chosen "Best of Festival" and Rhodium winners.
We also might choose a few Best Of Show, Outstanding Excellence and Excellence
winners to be showcased on WRPN.tv (optional)
If your film did not make it to the official selection status, we encourage you to send us a request for feedback. We believe in your potential and are here to support your growth. Once you've addressed the feedback and made improvements, you can resubmit your film for free during this new season.
