Is there any extension to the Nov 30th deadline for submissions? Thanks
Hi Ramsay,
Unfortunately there is no extension to the deadline. However, the deadline is a shipping deadline meaning it does not have to be in by the 30th just postmarked. You can find more information here http://www.fullframefest.org/festival/submit-2/guidelines-application-instructions/ .
Thanks,
CDS
