Unlike other arts nonprofits (performing arts, museums, etc.), film festivals typically receive few donations from the general public and are occasionally organized as nonprofit business associations instead of public charities. Film industry members often have significant curatorial input, and corporate sponsors are given opportunities to promote their brand to festival audiences in exchange for cash contributions. Private parties, usually to raise investments for film projects, constitute significant "fringe" events. More prominent festivals maintain year-round staff frequently engaging in community and charitable projects outside the festival season. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Entry_fee">Entry fee</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Film_festival&action=edit&section=19" title="Edit section: Entry fee"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>While entries from established film professionals are usually considered pluses by the organizers, most festivals require new or relatively unknown filmmakers to pay an entry fee to have their works considered for screening. This is especially so in more significant film festivals, such as the <a href="/wiki/Calcutta_International_Cult_Films_Festival" title="Calcutta International Cult Films Festival">Calcutta International Cult Films Festival</a> in <a href="/wiki/Kolkata" title="Kolkata">Kolkata</a> <a href="/wiki/Jaipur_International_Film_Festival" title="Jaipur International Film Festival">Jaipur International Film Festival</a> in Jaipur India, <a href="/wiki/Toronto_International_Film_Festival" title="Toronto International Film Festival">Toronto International Film Festival</a>, <a href="/wiki/Sundance_Film_Festival" title="Sundance Film Festival">Sundance Film Festival</a>, <a href="/wiki/South_by_Southwest" title="South by Southwest">South by Southwest</a>, <a href="/wiki/Montreal_World_Film_Festival" title="Montreal World Film Festival">Montreal World Film Festival</a>, and even smaller "boutique" festivals such as the <a href="/wiki/Miami_International_Film_Festival" class="mw-redirect" title="Miami International Film Festival">Miami International Film Festival</a>, <a href="/wiki/British_Urban_Film_Festival" title="British Urban Film Festival">British Urban Film Festival</a> in <a href="/wiki/London" title="London">London</a> and <a href="/wiki/Mumbai_Women%27s_International_Film_Festival" title="Mumbai Women's International Film Festival">Mumbai Women's International Film Festival</a> in India. </p><p>On the other hand, some festivals—usually those accepting fewer films and perhaps not attracting as many big names in their audiences as do <a href="/wiki/Sundance_Film_Festival" title="Sundance Film Festival">Sundance</a> and <a href="/wiki/Telluride_Film_Festival" title="Telluride Film Festival">Telluride</a>, require no entry fee.
