Now it’s time for YOU to figure out how to make a world class movie based on one of these award winning scripts. We chose ‘Everything You Need’ because it is a subtle and new spin on the riots, and if handled well, should move an audience to tears in ninety seconds or less. And we loved ‘Why’ because it just slammed us in the guts.

We have great prizes up for grabs for the winner of the film competition, including £250 cash, festival tickets, training courses… and the judges are amazing – Paul Greengrass (‘Bourne’ franchise helmer), Eddie Hamilton(X-Men and Kick Ass editor) and Jeremy Bolt (big shot Hollywood producer) to name but three… for a complete list of prizes and judges go here…

So what to do now?

1. Commit to entering the competition and set a shoot date. Make sure you send us your email address by entering it here…
2. Choose a script. You can of course make two films and enter both, but only ONE film will win the overal competition.
3. Get thinking, how can you make your film extraordinary? Cast? Sound? Camera? Location?
4. Check the rules… click here
5. Check out the blog  entry that I wrote about shooting a micro film here…
6. Don’t stray too far from the script. We get it, you are making a film and things often change on set. That’s fine. Just don’t do a blatant rewrite or you will be disqualified.
7. Get on with it!

Also, think beyond the movie. We will be taking note of successful social media campaigns, as well as poster artwork and microsites. We want the winning film to LAUNCH YOUR CAREER! So think BIG! We will be out there pushing too, so you are not alone in your drive for success. Get that blog going now!

OK, read the scripts by downloading them here.

If you enter the competition, we will be in touch VERY soon to update you too.

GOOD LUCK!
