Filmmaker ReviewWhat filmmakers are saying about Cinelot
KCKate CampbellWriter · Producer
"Working with CineLot and David has been such a wonderful experience. As a director, finding a producer and a team who genuinely connect with your vision and are excited to bring it to life is the dream.... That kind of integrity is completely refreshing. It’s been a long road to getting this film made, and I’m so grateful to have landed with a brilliant international team that believes in this wild and unhinged story as much as Dana and I do. Thank you to eoflix for championing independent filmmakers, for creating the connections that made this journey possible, and for helping bring this story to life!"

"Thank you so much to CineLot for distributing my film project, PORTAL TO HELL, and for creating a great movie poster for the CineLot website.
I hope CineLot and its associates will continue helping spread my movie and its story to audiences around the world.
CineLot has helped me distribute my film and created an awesome poster for it. I’m very grateful for their support, and I hope to reach even more viewers through their website.
Thank you again for your support!"

"I uploaded my short film to CineLot and made it available On Demand. Through CineLot, I connected with producer David Ornston, and that connection has opened a new door for me.
We are now working together to polish the feature film, and we’re on our way toward getting it produced. I’m really grateful to CineLot for helping me get my work seen and for making this connection possible."

Festival ReviewWhat festivals are saying about Cinelot
RTRon TruppaFounder · Executive Director
"Not only is the all-inclusive package of Submissions, online Screenings, and Ticketing (for online and physical fest) on one easy to use platform a game-changer for the film festival circuit, but the customer service is hands-on and super responsive. We never have to wait a day or two for an email response or to speak with someone to help resolve issues (like other platforms). There just isn't a platform that exists like this. It makes it so easy for our filmmakers (and ourselves) to only have to deal with one platform from submissions to screenings to ticketing."
TSFFThe Seattle Film Festival
"CineLot has hosted two our recent online festivals (while our festival is a primarily a live fest held annually in Seattle, WA, we also run an online festival prior to the live fest). Both times, the online festival was a great success and was very popular with our filmmakers. CineLot staff was absolutely amazing and really went the extra mile working with us and so far hosting two phenomenal online festivals for us. The platform is easy to use, innovative and modern. Highly recommended!"
MSFFMANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival
"Every short film entered into MANHATTAN SHORT Film Festival is automatically qualified to enter the Oscars the following year. However there are so many filmmakers that are unaware of that. This is one reason why we are happy to work with CineLot. They are on a mission in connecting great filmmakers with great film festivals and from a Festival standpoint, that's what we want."
WIWSXA International
"The best hybrid festival solution! CineLot combines top-tier security with incredible networking features. It's user-friendly for both filmmakers and the festivals."
