Film

The film side of the site in one place. Directors, cinematographers, editors and crew with reels, credits and contact details, short films, documentaries, music videos and experimental work watchable in full, and the screenings, premieres and festival calls being posted.

Film's barrier is no longer the camera. A capable body costs less than a week of the crew standing behind it, so the constraint has moved to time, locations and people. Shorts have become the working currency, made to open a door rather than to earn, and the festival circuit is where that door is. Most directors and cinematographers on the way up fund personal work with commercial jobs, and the two portfolios usually look nothing alike.

Crew credits are the useful part and they are attached to the work rather than typed into a bio, so a producer can move from a shot they liked to the person who lit it. Films play here at whatever length they were made, which is the point: a twenty minute documentary is not a showreel.
