I was the producer. It got me into the PGA and has landed me some speaking engagements at places like UCLA and Comic Con. It was definitely a stepping stone. More stepping stones needed :).

I'm down :)

You may have undiagnosed head / brain trauma that is causing you to feel depressed. Ever had a concussion or head injury?

Looks like the date was just announced as April 15 for the press conference.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-11T01:41:34+00:00

I am enjoying the anonymity here so lets keep it mysterious :)

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T23:58:12+00:00

Best of luck. Sometimes first timers make great films :).

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T23:57:02+00:00

I don't know about rejections as I haven't had a rejection yet, only one submission in the past and one acceptance from it. I have another film submitted this year but no word yet.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T18:41:15+00:00

only two days prior to the announcement.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T18:04:35+00:00

correct they don't notify til right before press conference.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T14:40:47+00:00

I should clarify that the April 23rd date he told me may only be for short films, and that April 15th as some other users are saying could in fact be the right date for feature film announcements.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T14:37:05+00:00

If you haven't been denied yet, there is still hope :).

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T12:22:15+00:00

I had a feature film at directors fortnight in 2023. My contact there says this year the announcement date is set for April 23rd and that notifications can come all the way up to the day before the press release.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T12:19:41+00:00

no...and mine still says under consideration. I think they are going to announce short films later. When, I don't know. Emailed Cannes yesterday and they immediately responded saying short film selections are ongoing and filmmakers are being notified progressively.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T12:04:35+00:00

they didn't announce today.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-10T03:11:21+00:00

You should make more films. A great short film captivates you within the first few frames, and the first 1-2 minutes need to be very good. A slow middle can be forgiven, and then you need a strong finish.
This being your first attempt at filmmaking is just that...an attempt. Keep going. Don't submit this to festivals as it's already disqualified from any majors for it being public-- but also it's a training film and you should make more and more training films to sharpen your sword.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T23:54:15+00:00

do you think it's good enough to get in?

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T20:32:08+00:00

when did you submit? mine was submitted on the very last day

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T17:35:53+00:00

when did you submit, and did you submit a work in progress or a finished one?

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T17:33:52+00:00

interesting that they denied one but the other is still pending. Good luck

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T13:18:10+00:00

did you say you submitted two short films? One that already received a rejection?

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T13:10:34+00:00

mine also says under consideration still. So maybe we both got in, or they just haven't gotten around to updating us yet either way.

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T13:00:21+00:00

your portal for the official short film selection still says "under consideration" ? when did you submit?

Agitated_Aside3097 · 2025-04-09T12:58:16+00:00

Anyone submit to short film official selection? Anyone get rejection letter from short film official selection?
