Important FAQs

When is payment due?
- Payment is due at time of booking.


How long can you hold a date/time?
- Generally you made hold a date/time as long as necessary, but while holding you will be susceptible to a challenge. If someone challenges your hold then you will have 2 business hours to confirm or release, and you will have to at least match the cost of the challenger's potential screening.


What do the different colors on your online calendars mean?
Foreground Colors:
Yellow - Soft Hold
Orange - Hold
Red - Booked
Brown - Special Updates

Background Colors correspond to the rates.


What is a challenge? How does a challenge work?
- A hold may be challenged if you are ready to book. If you would like to Challenge, then we will need a credit card form filled out and sent back to us to guarantee payment. We would then give the people holding that time 2 business hours to confirm or release. If they confirm, it is theirs and no charge to you. If they release, we will charge your credit card and it is yours. There is no backing out of a Challenge, once we issue the challenge. If the Challenge is for a higher dollar amount, that is the amount we will be paid. Either, by the current Hold, or by the Challenger. It behooves you to Book early to avoid the possibility of having to pay more than you could have, had you chosen to Book early.


What is your cancellation policy?
- Payment is due once a screening is booked, and there are no refunds. At our discretion we frequently offer a morning credit toward a future screening for any Cancellations that are not last minute, but there is no guarantee that we will offer a morning credit. Morning credits are for screenings that finish before Noon, and cannot be used during Academy season.
