I like the fact that we can see the results to the numbered questions after filling in the survey. If only we could find out the results from the filling in the blank questions.

Hi Vasco,
Thank you for taking the survey. I don't think we can set that up. I could nominate some of the most important but I'd rather hear each individual filmmaker voice speak up their observations first. :)
If you are curios though send me a private message and I'll spell a few of the answers.
Cheers

Hi Vlad. What is the purpose of the survey? Perhaps people would be more inclined to help you out if you tell them what motivates your research.

Hi guys,
Thank you for your answers.
We are running a film festival ourselves - BELIFF - Be Epic! London International Film Festival. We've heard many opinions about the relationship between filmmakers and festivals. We are genuine in our mission and we are potentially looking to change a few things/ preconceptions about this relationship. :)
To start with, we are aiming to be as transparent as possible, but beyomd that every filmmaker have their own way of regarding the festival circuit and different things they pursue when submitting. We'd very much like to know what these are to help us better understand their needs... and ultimately our mission. :)
Cheers.

Lodging/travel is always nice to get comped; I know not always possible w/smaller fests. I will second snacks and bevs at screenings/events - schedules are usually tight and this is very welcome for attendees running from one event to the next.

Hey John. Thanks for taking the time to look into our question. Useful info. While it's true not every festival will afford that I can see where you're coming from.
