There are three simple ways to submit your entry.

• FilmFreeway is the choice of film festivals everywhere, and you can submit your film or photo through their website at filmfreeway.com/2026SpringfieldDog-CademyAwards. They'll ask you quite a bit of information about your film, because they assume that you're entering into lots of festivals and want to have all the info any festival might need.
• Our Google Form is a simpler way for people to enter (and probably easier to do from your phone!). You'll answer some questions telling us about you and your film, and then choose how you want to upload your film.
• If technology is not your thing - that's fine with us! We'll help you get your film submitted at The Moxie Cinema. Thur, Aug 13 from 2-4pm, Fri, Aug 14 from 1-3pm, and Sat, Aug 15 from 2-4pm we'll be at The Moxie to help you get your video submitted - just stop by and we'll get you entered! Or if those times don't work, email joe@moxiecinema.com, and we'll find a time that does!

• By submitting to the Springfield Dog-Cademy awards you are acknowledging that you have the rights to music, images, etc. that appear in your film.

• We invite local dog-centric businesses to enter, but nothing will be accepted that is simply an advertisement. We want the puppies, not the sales team :)
• The Dog-Cademy awards is excited to share your dogs with the Springfield community, and as such, we do not allow AI entries. Only Human and Doggy-made films are allowed.
• You may submit multiple films.

Thanks so much for supporting The Moxie Cinema!
