If you are submitting a FILM project through Withoutabox, your FILM will become eligible for an IMDb title page as soon as LA Film+Music Weekend tracks your submission as ‘Received and In Consideration’!
Link your Withoutabox account to your IMDb account, and the system will create the title page automatically, once your film becomes eligible.
If your account is not linked, you will receive an email invitation with an invite code, once your FILM becomes eligible. The invitation will provide you with instructions and a link to access the IMDb title page request form.
