The Short Film Showcase

The Showcases 2022 @ Pinewood Studios Hosted by Lift-Off Global Network Join the Lift-Off Global Network from our home at the world-famous Pinewood Studios in the UK for a filmmaking showcase that puts you in the centre of everything. The film industry seems like a closed-door for many. Festival rejections and lack of work opportunities with a very high career fence to climb - appears to be the norm for all filmmakers at the indie level - and we want to change that. With this in mind, we have decided that the doors need to open and filmmakers should be given valued insights into how they can use their skills and develop them so that they may become the future of the business.

Our Showcase is an event held at Pinewood Studios. It incorporates screenings, discussion, feedback and presentations by organizations eager to support grassroots filmmakers. It is a great insight into how festivals programme and how filmmakers can take their creative journeys to the next level. As film festivals grow in stature many of their programming habits lean toward the experienced and sometimes more-resourced filmmaker. This leaves the filmmakers who are starting out behind and at times disillusioned with the film festival model and the film industry on the whole. We have come to the realisation that we need to find, celebrate, nurture and award ambitious talent - people who want to work within the business and realise their full potential. Screenings take place at the home of Lift-Off’s Annual Season Awards, followed by a timetable of events that include 1-2-1 surgeries with the Lift-Off Founders, presentations highlighting some insider secrets by industry based organisations, equipment suppliers and producers. We know that no one person can make an entire film and we would love to have the key members of the production team behind each film attend the event. The day will be filled with opportunities to network with other like-minded, filmmakers who will no doubt have insightful views about your work and be able to provide you with inspiration for new projects and possibly even collaborate with you in the future. There will be opportunities throughout the day to have your questions answered and this will enable filmmakers who attend the event to forge long lasting relationships which will be essential in the future! For each production team, there will also be a group peer review session. In this session, there will be a full discussion about the various films which have been screened during the day based on feedback from the attendees. Filmmakers will also have the opportunity to have a one-on-one meet and greet with the Lift-Off Co-founders James Bradley and Ben Pohlman.
