The Hamilton New York International Film Festival hosts filmmakers from around the globe and is regularly named a Top 100 Best Festival by FilmFreeway. Its website is the festival's box office, program guide, and submission funnel in one.
We designed around the festival's best asset — the glowing marquee of the Hamilton Movie Theater — with a cinematic hero, festival-dates block, FilmFreeway submission integration, and a photo wall that captures what the week actually feels like.
The site has to serve two audiences at once: filmmakers deciding where to submit, and attendees planning their week. Clear paths for both, no dead ends.
