Sherpa package

Our Sherpa package see us creating a personalised festival strategy with a list of carefully selected festivals for your film which takes into account the length, production values, genre, and budget limitations for submission fees – that we handle on your behalf so you remain stress free.

Being very mindful of all of the deadlines, we will help you to collate the items needed to carry out festival submissions including: film versions, EPK, bios, head shots, film stills, synopses, dialogue lists and more. We manage all deadlines, festival correspondence, form filling and file transfers so that you can focus on your next project safe in the knowledge that all festival deadlines are taken care of.

We field all requests from any extra festivals who would like to view the film, help with print traffic, and anything else that comes our way. Wherever possible we collate fee waivers and discounts to pass on to our Submission Slate clients. We are always very keen for each film to have a healthy submission fee budget and research to an approx £1000. If the budget is limited to cover both our services and have a strong submission fee budget, we will advise to opt for our smaller package so you can still garner our knowledge but be able to retain a strong circuit journey.

Our “Sherpa” package is the ideal option if you need someone to lead the way and be a passenger on the journey. Our experience will let you enjoy the ride.

Festival Formula offers ongoing professional consultation to all of our clients regardless of which package they opt for. Once you’re part of the family, we’re always here to help.

Our process can begin once we have received a signed contract, first cleared payment, and required film information.
