Getting started …

Be inspired

The Pitch is your opportunity to pitch to make a short film with a budget of £30,000, and production support and advice from top industry professionals.

Once it's made, we'll fly you and a friend or family member to Hollywood. We'll introduce you to film industry professionals such as producer Ralph Winter (X-Men, Fantastic Four) who'll watch your film and give you hints and tips on taking your skills to the next level.

The unique challenge of The Pitch is to come up with a contemporary film drawing upon the Bible for your inspiration.

To help you get started we have put together the following pages:
