Deep Fried Film Festival (0)

We award films based on audience votes and post the results on our site.

On submitting to the festival you give us the right to use your film for the promotion of the festival as well as screen it. (We will use still images or clips to promote the festival as a whole.)

We are now actively accepting films for the 2015 festival.
The Deep Fried Film Festival is open to all film makers. We screen films from around the globe from film makers of all ages and levels.

Closing Date for 2015 submissions is 24th May 2015

Submission is completely free and all we ask is you complete an application form and send us your film on DVD or HDD (NTFS or FAT32 formatted).

APPLICATION FORM
Online submission via Festhome.com

Selection Process
All films submitted are viewed and rated by our selection panel made up of our staff, sponsors and volunteers from charities involved. Once the closing date has passed the films are allocated slots by genre. We allocate the highest rated films first and work our way down the list. Unfortunately we have a small budget and an even smaller amount of screen time so please do not feell disheartened if we are unable to screen your film.

Selection Committee
The commitee is made up of Martin Greechan and volunteers from the sponsors and charities.

Notification
We will try our utmost to inform film makers whether or not their film is being screened as close to the closing date (24th May) but if you have not heard back by the 30th May Please contact us.

Awards
Each year we allocate awards to films that have stood out in one way or another. We use audience feedback and the opinions of our sponsors to determine these awards. Certain years do not have awards such as our 5th Anniversary and hopefully our 10th.

Voting System
Each member of the audience is given a ballot with a list of the films being screened. Film makers are also given a ballot with their own film omitted (this negates film makers being able to vote for themselves.) the ballots are then added up and a percentage approval rating calculated. In the event of a tie judges votes will be added to the calculations. If there is still a tie Deep Fried Film will decide the winner but will inform the film makers that such a decision has been made.
