Scam Film Festivals
I've mentioned it before that sometimes film festivals are pointless - they are seen by nobody, the reward of a certificate doesn't really advance your career, the judges have no reputation within the industry and the organisers/producers of the festival may be biased or are just doing it because they can/have to.
This article is really good and talks about scam festivals and how to spot one...have a read.

Not just film but if you need funding then this could be an option.
Have a look at some of the pitches...the best pitch seems to get the most funding and success.
