Digital Shorts is Back!

Want to make a short film? Talented? Have a great idea? Then Digital Shorts is for you!

The Digital Shorts scheme partners the UK Film Council New Cinema Fund to enable filmmaking talent to make short digital films with professional support. We are seeking out the most innovative and talented filmmakers in the East of England, who can demonstrate they have a fresh approach to filmmaking. Films can be of any genre within live action fiction, animation and documentary.

Screen East will be choosing seven projects for development, and producing five of those films after the development period. All films will have a cash budget of up to £12,500.

For more information on the Digital Shorts scheme please come to one of our tour dates, see details below.
