Royal Wolf Film Awards is an IMDb listed Online Bi-Monthly Awards platform that is dedicated to honoring projects from all over the world.

We are devoted to finding innovative independent artists who are creating groundbreaking work in their respective fields, and giving them a place to celebrate their artistry. We are looking for edgy, unique, and thought provoking pieces with a fresh voice.

If this defines the type of work you are currently creating then we would love for you to submit your project today!

Each bi-month is considered a season. There is not a live event. In setting up the seasons the software requires an event date to cap off the dates. This is by default of the software.

"SEASON WINNERS"
Each season we give filmmakers the opportunity to submit their latest work and compete with others.

Films entered in MULTIPLE CATEGORIES may win multiple awards!

Each Bi-Monthly winner will get a digital laurel along with a digital certificate.

"BEST OF SHOW"
At the end of each season, a "BEST OF SHOW" digital certificate is awarded to ONE top rated project.

"BEST OF THE YEAR”
In January, a "BEST OF THE YEAR" digital certificate is awarded to ONE top rated project selected from a pool of winning films in the previous twelve months.

    Thanks goes out to the entire team at Royal Wolf Film Awards for recognizing my biopic screenplay, THE RESTAURANT MAN, based upon the life and career of the late American restaurateur, Joseph Baum (1920-1989) who made dining theater. It is sincerely appreciated.
