I just got "selected" to be in a film festival. I submitted through film freeway. This is the first time I've ever submitted/been selected for a real film festival outside of college stuff.
Does this mean I am officially in the festival? Because on film freeway I see this thing about being a semi finalist and a finalist, and I don't know what that means. I know I've entered contests where you are moved from the first round to the second, but I am not sure if that is how this works, I don't think it would work that way.
Does anyone have experience with this?

Some pretty darn hot girl from my old community college kept bragging about being a finalist and semi finalist from film freeway, even got into a school. Shitty thing is that it was her first short film and she didnt write it and her "directing" came from the DP, which ended up with shitty directing and acting(for the most part) but it was a gorgeous and clear cut short. It's too bad she took the credit for writing and directing when she did neither. I wish her success regardless but I feel she'll get eaten alive wherever it is she ends up at.
Anyways, semi finalist and finalist just means you're being considered. Best of luck.
