Screening submissions are generally eligible for awards, which we publish 2-3 weeks following conclusion of our live events. Here’s a festival announcement.

Please watch for additional announcements and share with friends, family and fans. Thanks for sharing our links and your awards, posts and more with your social media; find us on Twitter, Facebook & Instagram @InfinitePFilms. Learn more.

All plans and practices are subject to change without notice. By submitting to our film festivals, the submitter agrees to allow us to download and screen the submission. By submitting to our film festivals, the submitter provides consent for us – AIAFilmmakers, Infinite Perimeter Films, and our team – to download and/or upload their intellectual property to the internet.

Due to continuing “pandemic” absolute total insanity, we’re planning to continue holding our film festivals online for the foreseeable future. Please purchase access $2/month, here.

Unless you make special/alternative arrangements with us, your submission will be available to stream continuously during the time in which the film festival is running, 2-3 weeks. If you want to screen, please provide us with easy access to your submission download ONLY via FilmFreeway and/or Vimeo, MP4, 1920 x 1080. In a pinch, we’re happy to download from We Transfer, Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, etc. You can also send us a ZIP file via email. Please compress your files, learn more.

IMPORTANT: We require a “Download” button to grab your submission at Vimeo!

As we understand it, by screening online in a fixed-term, pay-wall enforced, official festival capacity, your submission is not earning revenue or being sold to consumers in a traditional VOD market and, therefore, remains viable for future sales opportunities.

We very much appreciate your positive reviews! We regret, we are unable to select all of the amazing artistic submissions we receive each season. In the event your submission has not been selected, you withdraw from the festival, etc., as long as your relationship with us is in good standing, you are still absolutely welcome to create & maintain your AIAFILMmakers profile.

Also, we are happy to host your trailer(s) indefinitely. Please consult all platforms & venues directly for additional, important rules and guidelines regarding your privacy and more.

Last year’s SciFi & Fantasy film event was held 10/20/2019, 3-9 PM, The Bug Theater, 3654 Navajo Street, Denver Colorado 80211. Find out more about awards.

We like “quirky” scifi and fantasy characters including mummies, monsters, aliens, space invaders, body snatchers and zombies – the undead – especially politicians! We like space-related fantasies along the lines of Gravity (2013) and Daniel Espinosa’s Life (2017). We like thrillers like The Thirteenth Floor (1999). We would love to showcase your expose similar to Peter Hyams’ Capricorn One (1977), a government conspiracy thriller film about a Mars landing hoax. Learn more.

We anticipate submissions from many countries. Activists submit short & feature-length films, screenplays, music/songs, art and photos for consideration by our team of 3-8 judges, which may change seasonally. As our festival grows locally in popularity & sponsorship, we hope to invite partners & volunteers. We hope to hold panels and debates. In the meantime, our events may be lightly attended, so please plan accordingly.

All plans and practices are subject to change without notice. If you’re interested in volunteering, helping judge submissions and/or writing film & music reviews, which we may publish at our websites, please don’t hesitate to TEXT/CALL (720) 298-1524.
