CineLot

Film festival programming

Turn your selections into a festival people can experience.

Organize selected films into blocks, schedules, venues and a structured public program — everything after judging.

The problem

Programming should feel creative, not administrative.

Once films are selected, teams still have to balance runtimes, venues, schedules and screening groups. CineLot keeps selected films ready for programming so you move directly from selection to schedule.

Build screening blocks

Group films into curated programs and sessions with live runtime totals.

Organize your schedule

Place blocks and events into the festival timeline across days and venues.

Manage event details

Keep where and when each program runs clearly organized.

Stay connected to selected films

Programming reads the same film information already in the workflow.

Inside the workspace

Selected films → block → schedule → ready to ticket.

The block is the unit of work. A block can run in more than one screening, and each placement keeps its own venue, time and lineup.
