Does anyone know how festivals become "IMDb certified" ?
I've encountered a number of scam festivals all stating they are "IMDb certified." They are operating through FilmFreeway and preying upon indie filmmakers, web series creators and podcast producers. Does IMDb have a screening process before they let these people become "certified"?

Hi @GH33 -
While we strive to provide accurate and up-to-date information about various festivals, please be aware that we do not certify any events listed. For a review of all listed events see our All Events page). For more information on how events become listed on IMDb, I encourage you to review the listing criteria on our Help Guide.
I hope this helps!
