SUBMIT YOUR FILM

Newport Beach Film Festival (NBFF) prefers online entries submitted via Withoutabox.com (WAB), which provides cost-saving, paperless submission to film festivals around the world. Withoutabox’s internet-only submission platform features online applications via one master entry form, online fee payments, and press kits. The Newport Beach Film Festival offers the option for the filmmaker to provide a digital video file (See below for Upload Instructions.) in place of the traditional hard copy DVD for reviewing and consideration.. Fill out one master entry form and take advantage of quick entry, extended deadlines, and powerful submission management tools. There is no extra cost to you, and by submitting, you will join Withoutabox’s global filmmaker community and stay in the loop about international exhibition opportunities.
