Every submission can add additional judging categories (via multiple submissions). The name(s) to be credited should be included in the cover letter or sent by email. All entries are promoted through our social media and website with a featured page that includes a synopsis, film stills, and a trailer.
For this purpose, we recommend fully entering projects on FilmFreeway or Google Forms, including film stills, production pictures, downloadable posters, and a trailer or teaser. All projects officially selected in each season will receive the Red Incarnation International Film Festival Awards laurel and a custom digital certificate.
For the final competition and screenings, films will be nominated from the pool of officially selected entries for each festival session. The names of these officially nominated films will be announced on social media, and certificates will be awarded to the nominees.
Some of the award-winning films may be screened in our venues, and their crews are invited to attend. The Red Incarnation International Film Festival Awards accepts 4K or 2K - MOV or MP4 formatted files for public screenings.
Nominees will earn a ‘Laurel of Nomination’ and will be prominently featured on our social media platforms.
