HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR FILM
Share your film through Google Drive with david@ifpphx.org. Detailed instructions are on the technical specifications page, listed above. Films must finish uploading before deadline!
You must then complete the submission form below.

TRAILER AND POSTER
Having a trailer and poster can really help get eyes on your film. That’s a big reason why we do this, right? A 30 second trailer and an 11×17 (PDF format please!) poster for your film will also be judged for awards. These are optional. If you choose to submit them, they must be submitted the same way your film is. Trailers and posters have an extra 24 hours. They are due Monday, June 20th, 2022 at 7pm.

TICKETS FOR THE SCREENING
Each team receives two tickets to the screening event on Wednesday, July 13th, 2022. Additional tickets will be sold online, at the IFP office, or by calling 602.955.6444.
