EIFF does not accept trailers or works in progress. If you send us a rough-cut, we cannot guarantee we’ll have time to view a finished product, particularly if a new dvd screener is sent after our late deadline of June 30th. Your film has a better chance of being selected if EIFF is able to review a finished product. Applicants will be informed of the status of their project not later than August 15th.
Once again, we are delighted to WAIVE submission fees for ALBERTA Filmmakers and ALUMNI Filmmakers (people who submitted to EIFF in 2005 or later).
For full descriptions of categories and submission fee amounts, click here. All submission fees are in Canadian dollars. You MUST submit your film using our online submission form. If you are an Alberta or Alumni Filmmaker and your submission fee is waived, you are still required to fill out our online submission form and indicate your WAB (withoutabox) number on the DVD submission you send to us.
