TERMS & CONDITIONS
Qualified motion pictures produced within the past three years are eligible for Maverick Movie Awards (MMA) in the Features, Shorts and/or Web Series categories as dictated by their length and submission format chosen by the submitter. Unless there are no qualifiers for a specific award, one (1) Maverick Award honor is given to one (1) out of as many nominees as we deem necessary within the features, shorts and web series categories with the the potential for any number of Special Achievement awards.
Award and nominee selections are made by Maverick Movie Awards and are final. Physical media also known as "screeners" will not be returned and once the submission is registered with our contracted submissions vendor and/or been vetted by our awards submission team, movies may only be withdrawn from consideration at our sole discretion. Don't waste our mother lovin' time is the gist here. You're potentially robbing a fellow filmmakers of their opportunities and wrecking the math by waffling after we've watched the movie. If you paid for it, deal with it.
Nominees and winners are posted on our website and other media outlets at our sole discretion at the close of each season. Excluding sponsored prizes where applicable, the Maverick Movie Awards does not provide trophies, plaques, paper certificates or any type of material award. However, the MMA does provide winners and nominees with access to free downloadable Maverick Movie Award certificates and the expected, reasonable use of our art to generate their own marketing material. If selected, the moviemaker, controlling company, and/or submitter grants unrestricted rights and permission to the Maverick Movie Awards to list and promote the winning and/or nominated movie, its advertising/promotional material(s), as well as any individual, group, company, and/or organization listed in the movie credits for the life of the Maverick Movie Awards.
The Maverick Movie Awards does not pay, nor will accept, any fees, gifts and/or other solicitations to list and/or promote submitted and/or selected movies or associated promotional/advertising material(s).
