What Will They Think of Next Film Festival

What Will They Think of Next Film Festival was an online film festival and screenplay contest with an Austin contact, run by festival director Mike Neel. It rewarded creative, original ideas in film and screenwriting and took films of any genre plus scripts. Prizes for the top film included a trophy and gear-rental and B&H Photo credits, with certificates for directing, acting, cinematography, sound, effects and other crafts. Its third season drew FilmFreeway reviews in December 2023. Entries have been closed since, and a December 2024 copy of the listing still showed season three with no new dates.
