The Festival's Mission

The festival’s goal is to create a direct connection between filmmaker and audience. There are NO submission fees for filmmakers. FHTA attempts to create multiple revenue opportunities for the festival filmmakers by providing a platform that enables distribution across multiple outlets - mobile, online, living rooms and theaters.

Filmmakers retain all their rights and choose how to price their work.In an interesting twist we’ve decided to put the programming of the festival directly in the hands of the audience. By harnessing the power of social tools, audience members will be able to discover, share and assist in programming the festival.




Getting Started

STEP ONE - create an FHTA account.

STEP TWO - READ THIS and create a submission video and upload it to blipTV, myspace, and youTube

STEP THREE - come back and finish submitting your project
