IndieX Film Fest

IMDb qualifier IndieX Film Fest is an LA-based international film festival with live screenings and Q&A at the Raleigh Studios in Hollywood, California.

IndieX is looking for independent projects from all genres and all countries, especially from those traditionally underrepresented in the global film industry.

Each round, all submitted projects are judged by a random team of invited experts from academia and film industry from Los Angeles area, against a high standard of merit.

From the pool of official selection, which has a very competitive acceptance rate, IndieX choses the nominees and award winners of the season. Some of the award-winning projects, selected by the programmers of IndieX, are publicly screened in Los Angeles in special Q&A sessions with cast and crews.

Annual Awards qualifying
The nominees and award winners of each round qualify for the Annual Awards. For this 2-day event, also at the Raleigh Studios in Hollywood, the judging team of IndieX chose around 75/85 films to nominate for the best of the year (from the pool of nominees and awards winners of 12 monthly rounds).

Every submission can add additional judging categories. In these cases, the name(s) to be credited should be included in the cover letter or sent to IndieX by email.
Note that any entry is judged only according to the nature of the submitted category or categories.

All projects officially selected in each round receive the IndieX official laurel and the custom certificate of achievement according to their final status in the competition.

At least 3 different judges score the quality and creativity of each entry on a performance scale. The highest rated entries are nominated for the awards of the respective categories and finally are choose the winners.

Besides the main award and the special Student Awards for each category, it can be given also Outstanding Achievement Awards (for the runner-ups) and Honorable Mentions.

No idea what really took place here. As of now I have laurels and the name of my film on their website's list of "winners," but no indication as to whether it's been exhibited anywhere. Confusing auto-generated emails and no follow-ups for my questions. This will probably be swallowed by the sea of bot reviews but if someone's reading this, take heed.
