Independent Film Submission

Independent filmmakers who wish to have their work reviewed need to follow these guidelines:

1] Please send all inquiries about reviews to editor@mikesfilmtalk.com. Inquiries should mention film length, genre and story outline.

2] After confirmation that MikesFilmTalk will review the film, any hard copy screeners, aka DVD’s need to be sent to 113 N Main Ave, Lincoln AR 72744.

3] Online screeners need to be emailed to editor@mikesfilmtalk.com with links to the account along with any passwords. The same applies to any trailers for submission.

4] Films may be any length, however, films under 10 minutes are not encouraged. They can be either short film format or feature length film and should be listed for festival circuit at a minimum. In other words it needs to be a professional film. No YouTube amateur dramatics or, as another website has stated, some sort of political, religious message film. Pornographic AKA adult films are also not appropriate for this site.

5] All submissions should be complete films. Nothing in post production, i.e. temporary soundtracks, et al. All should have cast and production information included in either the inquiring email or the posted package.

6] All films in DVD, or blu-ray, format should have proper cases and be in the final packaging.

7] Failure to respond to review  links forwarded will result in further requests being denied. We are reviewing your work for free, acknowledgment of the review is the least we require in terms of recompense.

8] Images should be sent via email with photographer credits attached. Image sizes should be large and cannot be smaller than 450X300. Any images sent that are smaller than 450X300 will result in the film not being reviewed.

9] Mike’s Film Talk reserves the right to refuse reviewing any films that do not fit the guidelines or issues of  time constraints.
