Celebrating our 15th Anniversary, the Great Lakes International Film Festival has officially opened its Call for Entries, and is now accepting films of all genres and lengths from around the world and across the United States.

In honor of our 15th Anniversary we have slashed our submission fees and have rolled them back 15 years.

As a special deal to FilmFreeway members we are offering a special discount on our submission fees that are already among the lowest of any festival in the world.

Considered among most popular film festivals in the world, the 15th annual Great Lakes International Film Festival genre categories for feature-length and short length films are Documentary, Experimental, Religious/Spiritual, Animation, Comedy, Horror, with Horror sub-genres that include Supernatural, Thrillers, Wicken, Magical, Slashers, Science Fiction, Suspense, Horror Documentary, Horror Animation and all genres of Music Videos and GLBT films for the 2016 festival.

For the past 15 years our Festival has been awarding outstanding filmmakers for their hard work, dedication to the art of Independent Film, and most importantly, excellence in overall filmmaking. Our awards are bestowed upon Filmmakers each year for Best of Genre Awards that include the genres of Documentary, Animation, Comedy, Feature Narrative, Short Narrative, Horror, Music Video, Religious/Spiritual, LGBT, and Experimental Films, along with an Audience Choice Award for the film that receives the most audience votes from our attendees, both at our live event and through our virtual theatre screenings.

If there is anything as universal as the ageless storytelling of motion pictures, it’s the music that makes up life’s soundtrack.

The 2016 Great Lakes International Film Festival shall accept Music Videos from around the world of cross-continent and cross-genre productions. We shall accept Music Videos of all genres from Pop, Punk, Rock, Alt-Country, Country-Western, Folk, Reggae, Hip-Hop to Electronica, Jazz, Blues, Zydeco, Industrial, Metal, Hardcore, Gothic, Karaoke, Avant-Garde, World Music, and Experimental, and all other genres that may not be listed here.

The 2016 Great Lakes International Film Festival will accept all forms of Religious, Christian, and Spiritual films including African, African-American, GLBT, Black, Hispanic, Islamic, Latino, Native/Aboriginal and student films from the United States and around the world.

Showcasing the best films of the 2016 season, the Great Lakes International Film Festival will be held LIVE in the great city of Erie, Pennsylvania on September 22nd, 2016, with our online festival taking place September 22nd thru October 1st, 2016.
