SEND YOUR FILMS IN NOW...

Instead of doing individual calls for each event we organise, from this day forward, my door is ALWAYS OPEN. (this is a metaphor, if you come to my house I promise I will kill you).

As a member of Shooting People, when you make a film, be that a feature film, a short film, an animation, a music video, or a documentary, I want to see it.

This applies equally to all members, if you're an actor and you've just given the performance of your life, if you're a CG artist and you've just created something beautiful, if you're a script supervisor, well, OK, probably not you - but - everyone else - if you've done it, I want it.

Once it's in my hands it becomes eligible for inclusion in the Mobile Cinema, the Split Focus series at the BFI and every other Shooter event... Not only that but everything that catches my interest will get passed on to the BBC Film Network and reviewed in the blog for all the world to see and marvel at. Better still the world will be able to see and marvel it at anyway because to get your film to me all you have to do is upload it to our new Watch Film site and then email with a link to let me know it's waiting for me! Once it's online not only can I watch it but my 34,000 friends at Shooting People can watch it too!

About Ben

Ben Blaine is Shooting People's Film Programmer, a veteran of two Mobile Cinema tours and a member of the BBC Film Network's Industry Panel. Send him your Shooter short films as soon as they are completed. Those that make the Short List will not only get reviewed on this blog but will also be screened at SP parties and events.

When Ben is not watching your films, he's making his own with his brother Chris, as you will find if you go and look at their website www.charlieproductions.co.uk
