If you’re a documentary filmmaker and you fancy a quick shot at fame on Channel 4, there’s a new competition being launched next month with your name on it.
To celebrate the release of Guy Maddin‘s My Winnipeg, Channel 4 are looking for UK filmmakers to make a three minute documentary about your home town. The winning films will screen both on Channel 4 and at the Branchage Film Festival. You could even win a holiday to Winnipeg!
The competition kicks off on the 1st July, check out the competition home page for more details, and to set yourself a reminder.
To get you in the mood, here’s the trailer for My Winnipeg.
Think I might have a go myself…
About Andy Coughlan
I write stuff down and try to make films out of it. Sometimes I succeed.
I also write novels, like The Elementalist and code things, like Scribomatic, Brolly or Not? and Geeky Gifts.
Current projects: A short film, The Man Who Wished which I\'m also developing into a TV series.
What I'm Doing...
