If youâve been seeing the name Festival Fixr⢠pop up lately and wondering what this new tool actually is⌠I made this video for you.
This short intro walks you through why I built Festival Fixrâ˘, what it does, and how it helps independent filmmakers submit smarter â without the second-guessing, burnout, or endless Googling.
Why This Matters
Every week, filmmakers DM me asking some version of:
-
âWhere should I submit?â
-
âIs this festival worth the fee?â
-
âHow do I get momentum after getting in?â
-
âWhat do I do with all these materials now?â
Until now, Iâve answered those one-on-one.
Festival Fixr⢠is how I answer at scale â with a strategist thatâs available 24/7, trained on what Iâve learned from programming, consulting, and navigating the circuit myself.
What Youâll See in the Video
This isnât a product demo. Itâs a quick, clear explanation of what Festival Fixr⢠helps you do â especially if:
â
Youâre just starting submissions and feel overwhelmed
â
Youâve hit a wall and donât know how to pivot
â
Youâre tired of guessing and want real strategy
Youâll see how Festival Fixr⢠uses the same decision frameworks Iâve used with 1:1 clients, including:
đŻ Festival plan creation
âď¸ Bio + logline refinement
đ Premiere strategy and momentum building
đŤ Scammy festival filtering
đ§ Post-rejection pivots
If you’ve ever wished someone would just tell you what to do next, this tool was built for that moment.
