Today’s FilmFreeway Testimonial: ROMANCE & RELATIONSHIPS Festival

Submit via FilmFreeway. Deadline Today:

The Feedback Romance and Relationship Festival was such an amazing festival experience. Great communication from the jump. The feedback video provided by the audience was incredibly thoughtful and done with real care for the film. It is so great to hear people who actually took the time to find meaning in your work, and share their insights to what the film meant to them, it’s why we do what we do.

Not only do they provide great feedback to the filmmaker but they give you opportunities to share your vision of the film with a written and podcast interview. It gives an independent filmmaker the opportunity to market their work and showcase the dedication it takes to make a film. It was a great honor to be selected and honored at this festival. I will certainly be submitting when we make the next film!
