Alexandria Film Festival Seeks Film Submissions

ALEXANDRIA, VA – Today, the Alexandria Film Festival kicked off its effort to seek film submissions for its November 7-10 international festival. Filmmakers are invited to submit short and feature films of any genre through FilmFreeway, an online portal which provides a detailed description of the festival and reviews by filmmakers who’ve attended in the past.

There are four submission windows for the festival starting with “Early Bird” and ending with “Extended Deadline.” Submission fees rise with each phase. A panel of judges screen and rate films as they are submitted. Top-rated films advance to a programming subcommittee for inclusion consideration in the multi-day program. Filmmakers are notified in early September regarding their acceptance. Submission dates are as follows:

March 4 Opening Date

April 12 Early Bird Deadline

May 31 Regular Deadline

July 1 Late Deadline

July 31 Extended Deadline
