  So, you wanna make movies?

If you've got what it takes to be the next Scorcese or Paul Haggis, now's the time to show what you're worth. Cameras cost almost nothing. Home editing programs let you cut, add effects and put music on your film at home on the laptop. Making a movie is easy. Making a great movie, a movie that means something, that moves people, that changes lives? That's another matter.

Movie making is an intricate process best learnt by first making a short film – the kind of short film that wins prizes at festivals and gets a filmmaker noticed, just as Scorcese, Haggis, Spielberg and George Lucas got noticed and launched their careers.

How do you make a great short film? Like great features, you have to know every step on the journey from script to screen: writing, directing, producing, getting finance and showing your film where it's going to get seen and remembered. If that's what you want to do, stick around, you've come to the right place.
