Submissions Now Open for the 2018 Edition of the Silicon Beach Film Festival in

Miami/Fort Lauderdale

Submissions are open for Silicon Beach Film Festival Miami / Fort Lauderdale.

Fort Lauderdale, FL, January 22, 2018 --(PR.com)-- The Silicon Beach Film Festival is an annual film
festival organized by Jon Gursha and Peter Greene to foster up and coming independent filmmakers from
across the globe. As an extension of the Silicon Beach Film Festival that originated on the Westside of
Los Angeles, the 2018 edition of the event is scheduled to be held in Miami/Fort Lauderdale, between the
9th and 12th of February and submissions are currently open for the festival. The Festival will then return
to Los Angeles in April.

Independent and up and coming filmmakers often find it difficult to compete with the heavyweights in the
industry, as it is more difficult to give their works the desired exposure to reach an audience. The
relatively high cost of promoting movies and the intense competition in the industry has led to many
quality films never making it into the mainstream and attracting an audience.

Jon Gursha and Peter Greene, therefore, created the Silicon Beach Film Festival with the primary purpose
of promoting talented up and coming and independent filmmakers from the US as well as different
countries across the globe. Over the years, the film festival has featured and rewarded excellent films,
while giving those involved with them much needed exposure.

With a focus on technology and film, the festival has become one of the much-anticipated events of the
year, drawing the attention of new and established filmmakers, actors, and other stakeholders in the
industry across the globe. The Silicon Beach Film Festival Miami/Fort Lauderdale is part of the
expansion plans of the team behind the Silicon Beach Film Festival.

The launch of the event is an extension of the success of the original Silicon Beach Film Festival in Los
Angeles and its partnerships with movie theaters. The screening for the upcoming film festival will be
held at the beautiful Savor Cinema in Fort Lauderdale. The extended deadline for submissions is February
2, 2018, with notifications scheduled to be sent on the 3rd of February 2018.

Organizers of the event have stated that film submission does not guarantee festival acceptance or
screening, even as acceptance does not guarantee award or prize. Interested participants are required to
pay a nonrefundable submission fee to get their work screened. Interested filmmakers can submit their
works on https://filmfreeway.com/SiliconBeachFilmFestivalMiami. More information about the festival
can be found on the festival's Facebook Twitter and Instagram accounts.
