September 2025 WILDsound Festival Testimonials (123 FIVE Star Reviews)

Submit to the WILDsound Festival Today:

An absolute gem of a film festival that provides chances for a screenwriter to get non-AI feedback, hear actors perform their work, and be able to promote their works by competing in the festival. This should be the standard for all screenplay competitions!


I highly recommend that filmmakers of any skill level interact and engage with the Wildsound Film Festival.

Festival organizers Matthew and Alison Toffolo have created an awesome experience. Their passion for the medium of film and providing filmmakers with exposure, feedback, and connections is clear through the quality of their festival.

The feedback videos they offer are a perfect tool to gauge audiences’ reception of your film.

The podcast interview the festival provides is a great way to promote your film. Matthew is an awesome host who asks engaging and detailed questions.

Films submitted to this festival also have the chance to be selected for one of the biweekly, genre-based screenings at the Toronto Carlton Cinema.

These in-person events happen biweekly and are an awesome opportunity to view, support, and discuss short films with other artists. I’m so grateful to have met so many truly talented and passionate film enthusiasts and creators at this event. It was an incredible honor to have The Callback, a short film I wrote and directed, premiere at this festival. I’m deeply grateful to have been a part of it.


Great festival with the very unique feature of excellent short videos with audience feedback – great!


WILDsound offers excellent opportunities to elevate your script to the next level. Matthew is incredibly kind and helpful — definitely check out his podcast!
Thank you for reviewing my precious baby, Blue Idaho.


Thank you for awarding “Best Direction” to our film SWEET DREAMS! So humbled by the recognition. This festival is by far one of the best we’ve screened in. The feedback from audience members was inspirational; the podcast interview is one-of-a kind; the additional screening online brought us into homes across the world and communication from staff was timely and professional. WILDsound makes filmmakers feel welcomed, seen and supported–highly recommended!


Today’s FilmFreeway Deadline: EXPERIMENTAL, DANCE, MUSIC Film Festival (198 FIVE Star Reviews)

Deadline Today to Submit to the Festival via FilmFreeway:

Currently 198 FIVE star reviews on FilmFreeway!

In-person public screenings, plus other avenues to enhance the filmmaker’s film (audience feedback video, virtual festival, blog & podcast interview).

NOTE: The festival has created a hybrid festival with 4 tiers to enhance your film and your festival experience. All accepted films receive all four tier options:

Tier #1 – Your film plays at a public live event where we will record the audience reactions of your short or feature and then send you the feedback video. Or, it plays at a private festival event where the audience will record their comments/reactions to your film on their camera or phone, then we edit them and send you a promotional video. No matter what you will receive a promotional video of your film of people commenting on your film.

Tier #2 (optional) – We put up your film live on the Film Festival Streaming Service for 30 hours and invite a select industry audience to watch it. With this system, some films have already received a distribution deal, as many platforms are looking for solid feature and short films. We can not guarantee anything, of course but this has been very helpful to many in the past. (see testimonials below.)

Then (Tier #3) we will send you a list of questions to answer for our blog interview that will promote you and your film. Then after that (Tier #4) we will set up a podcast interview on our popular ITunes show where will we chat with you about the process of how the film was made.

——

The goal of this festival is to showcase the best of new experimental short films and independent music videos from around the world. Films that don’t get a fair shake from other film festivals because programmers don’t know where to “categorize” these films. There isn’t a typical linear story occurring so most festivals can’t truly understand the talent and beauty around these films.

We want to showcase films that showcase true originality and talent from filmmakers from every corner of the globe. And also showcase new musicians who have made a music video and want it to be shown.

August 2025 TORONTO COMEDY Festival (5 STAR) Testimonials.

Deadline Today to submit to the festival:

FEEDBACK Toronto Comedy Film and Screenplay Festival is a must for filmmakers because you get direct feedback that allows you to know if your film works. Do people get it? Does it engage conversation? All of these questions were answered and more. Thank you. And Thank you for recognizing the actors that put in a great performance. There is a lot of talent out there and to tip your hat to two of ours, makes us giddy.

I was delighted that The Window Washer was named Audience Favorite, and for the opportunity the Toronto Comedy Film Festival provides for film makers. The hospitality, communication and organization are excellent, with pricing an encouragement as well.

Great film festival! They delivered above and beyond. Amazing experience !! Thank you for all the awesome perks 🙂

Right from the start, I was excited to see “Selected” under judging status. This festival is the best one I have been part of, because of the public’s feedback. It warms our hearts to hear comments from people we don’t know and the video is very usefull for our futur in the industry.

Thrilled to have our very first production ‘hard stop’ awarded by this festival. Getting personalised feedback via video was very encouraging.
