Our film festival supports independent filmmakers. We receive thousands of submissions every year. It's our goal to get every film watched at least three times by different audiences.Filmmakers submit their films through various websites, primarily WithoutaBox and FilmFreeway. For the most part you will be able to watch and review the films online through our system, but in some cases you may be redirected to view a film on the submission website. In those cases, you will see login information where the screener would be. Use this login info to view the film on the submission site.
It is always our goal to protect the films and filmmakers from any possibility of being leaked before the festival, so we require you to sign the Non-Disclosure Agreement that we will send you.
The Ballot:
After viewing each film, you will be asked to answer a few questions, including whether you think the film should be programmed. Please answer these questions based both on your personal experience of the film and whether you think it is engaging and a story that needs to be seen (sometimes we ask reviewers, “would you want to stand up and introduce the film in front of an audience of moviegoers?”) Please try to keep your answers relatively succinct, and remember your answers, except the last one, will only be viewable by PDXFF programming staff.
Visible-to-Filmmaker Comment:
Through this ballot, you have an option to give a comment that will be visible to the filmmaker. Although it is entirely optional, we provide this because we want submissions to PDXFF to benefit all filmmakers that send in their films, not just those that we are ultimately able to accept. This is an important opportunity for the filmmaker to receive invaluable feedback, and as reviewers and members of the artistic community, it is crucial to treat this with the utmost respect. In many cases these films are the product of many years of work: if you choose to include a comment to the filmmaker, please make sure it is constructive and said in the way you would want to hear it.
