Redefining Community Through Your Lens
We want you to join us in redefining the narrative of community through your lens. It’s not just about making films; it’s about making a difference. Send us your short films for a chance to be broadcast on national television and kickstart your career in film and TV.
Submission Guidelines
1. Eligibility: Are you a film enthusiast studying at a university or an enthusiastic member of a community group? This call is for you! No matter your background, we want your unique perspective.
2. Theme: Your film should explore the theme of “Community” in your own distinctive way. Dive into personal narratives, shed light on local initiatives, or celebrate the unbreakable bonds within your community. Be the storyteller you were born to be.
3. Duration: Keep it snappy! Films should run between 2 to 3 minutes, perfect for captivating your audience on social media platforms and, of course, Together TV.
4. Technical Standards: Your final film should be delivered in QuickTime HD PAL, 16:9, 25fps. The image size should be 1920 x 1080 and must adhere to our broadcast technical standards suitable for airing on Together TV in the UK. We want your creativity to shine in high definition.
5. Music: You can choose to use music or not – however, any music must be licensed properly from the music labels or collection societies. A better, cheaper route could be to go for original music, creative commons music, or paid royalty-free music, which can elevate your film without the licensing worries.
