Awards
IndieFEST celebrates work in three levels of awards: Best of Show (granted to the
highest scoring production), Award of Excellence (outstanding and high-quality films)
and Award of Merit (good film craft and storytelling).
In addition, an annual Humanitarian Award is granted to a production which has
dedicated service to social justice, humanitarian causes or environmental issues.
Entries are judged by in-house staff and a committee which includes Emmy, Telly and
Communicator award nominees and recipients.
