Analog Short Film Fund worth over £10K
We know that so many indie filmmakers adore the analog medium, and would love the opportunity to shoot a film in the “traditional” method. Whether it's the grainy aesthetic... the care and artistic process it demands... or whether it's simply a love for where the art of filmmaking began.
Part of our mission here at From The Silver Screen is to contribute to the revival and continuation of filmmakers’ accessibility to shoot on film. Therefore we are thrilled to have teamed up with Arri Rental, Kodak, Cinelab Film & Digital and Company 3 to provide the ultimate analog package for a filmmaking team. Together with these industry stakeholder companies we will sponsor up to three short films a year.
The Brief
- All scripts must be 15 pages or under
- Treatment should include a logline, synopsis, any attached cast and crew, previous examples of the director/writer/ Producer’s work, motivation behind the project, target audience and a rough budget outline
- Maximum of three shooting locations
- Feasible shooting schedule of 5 days or under
- Applicants can be based anywhere but the project must be shooting in the UK
The Package

ARRI Rental's mission is to be instrumental in realizing the creative visions of international film and program makers.
1600 ft (4 cans) 16mm Kodak film stock
With the slogan "you press the button, we do the rest," George Eastman put the first simple camera into the hands of a world of consumers in 1888. In so doing, he made a cumbersome and complicated process easy to use and accessible to nearly everyone.
Just as Eastman had a goal to make photography "as convenient as the pencil," Kodak continues to expand the ways images touch people's daily lives.
