Now that we are at the end of the year, and the volume of festivals and submissions is at its lowest point of the year<\/strong>, it is a good time to start planning the beginning of 2018.<\/p>\n

I have already published several posts about planning festival premieres and how to establish a selective strategy to take care of both the world premiere and the international and national premieres.<\/p>\n

I have also dedicated some posts to various genres, such as documentary<\/strong> and animation<\/strong>, and to different types of festivals, such as science fiction<\/strong>, festivals for children and young audiences<\/strong>, virtual reality<\/strong>, medium-length films<\/strong>, debut films<\/strong>, etc.<\/p>\n

A different festival list<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Now I have decided to publish a different festival list, with a very heterogeneous character<\/strong>, but with two elements in common: they all have a January 2018 deadline and they are free festivals.<\/p>\n

I have focused mainly on short films, both festivals and sections, separating the lists by running-time limit<\/a> so that you can better match them to your film.<\/p>\n

The document contains five different lists:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Festivals that accept various running times<\/strong>, and therefore include short films.<\/li>\n
  2. Festivals that accept short films up to 30 minutes<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  3. Festivals up to 25 minutes<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  4. Festivals up to<\/strong> 20 minutes<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  5. Festivals up to<\/strong> 15 minutes<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    As you will see, they include only those from 15 minutes upwards, and in all cases they are festivals (or sections) with no submission fees<\/a>, so there is no need to pay, unless you use submission platforms<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    I have prepared these lists to help you if you are already in a more intensive distribution phase and do not have much budget<\/strong>. They are all grouped in PDF format and ordered by deadline, <\/em>with the website, the submission platform, and the event dates. <\/p>\n

    In total there are around 86 festivals from different countries<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    To download them you can use this short subscription form; only your name and an email address are required so I can send them to you:<\/p>\n

    >>The form is no longer available<<<\/strong><\/p>\n

    I wish you the best of luck, and above all I hope these lists will help you continue distributing your film in 2018.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
