INDEXFilm-makers in Liverpool?

Most of the jobs I see are in or around London. If there's any film-makers out there in the Liverpool area, it would be great to meet up and work together! =)

Hi there. I'm a Liverpool based film maker. I'd be up for meeting up for a chat about working in the city. There is still actually a shooters here I believe but I haven't been for some time. Please let me know if you'd like to meet. Perhaps we could start a woman in film group. Nice to know it's not just me!

I'm sorry Silke, I didn't realise that you had responded until just now. I think the first thing to do would be to find a suitable venue - maybe somewhere quite centrally and with good public transport and a car park close isn. I know that shooters have to endorse it because you can only have one per city. I'd arrange the venue first, then clear it with shooting people. It might help if for the first few sessions you can get any filmmakers you know personally to show up and support it until it reaches a critical mass (hope that's the right phrase). I'd also write to all shooters who are local and invite them along. I hope it goes well for you xxx

I'm a composer / sound designer based just across the Mersey in New Brighton, and would be interested in any new film making groups, get-togethers, etc.

Thanks Jamie, that website looks pretty cool. I'll try to make it to some of the events =) it looks like they have a lot of stuff going on. I've requested to join the facebook group, is there much interaction on there?

Thanks Holly, thats a good idea. I know there was a shooters in the pub event for Liverpool at one time, but its not running anymore, would be a good idea to try and restart it =) I don't really know how to go about setting one up. Is it through the site or do you organise it independently?

Hi Jamie, I'm a Manchester based filmmaker and I've just had a look at the link you've put up. It looks great and I love the ethos of "make films NOW". Can you tell me if they are inclusive of younger filmmakers? Holly x

If you can make it over to Manchester occasionally Silke, then Filmonik is well worth checking out as a strong functioning community of filmmakers: http://filmonikweb.blogspot.co.uk/

Hello Silke,
I am brand new to Shooting People as of yesterday and I am based in Liverpool. If you would like to meet up that'd be great. Hit the contact button on my profile. My profile is a bit bare at the moment, but I have experience in Film, I'm currently working on an audio documentary and I'm looking to develop partnerships in the city for future projects too. :)

Hi Silke, have you thought about starting a "shooters in the pub" in Liverpool? I've always really enjoyed these. I've recently moved to Manchester and we don't actually have a "shooters in the pub" here right now and I'm thinking of starting one up. Holly x

Hello everyone!
I'm currently working on a short film called Being Keegan that is shooting in Liverpool mid-August (dates to be confirmed) and we've got plenty of crew roles to fill! Would be great to hear from you all and perhaps get to work with some of you! Posted the link to all the roles below!
