    Description

    DOC IN A DAY


    Following the success of our 5 previous DOC IN A DAY competitions. We're pleased to announce our 6th DOC IN A DAY competition which will take place on 24th-25th September.

    Are you tired of thinking about filming and want to actually FILM something?! This is your chance to do so in a relaxed and supportive environment. Whether filmmaking is just a twinkle in your eye or you're a seasoned pro, kick yourself out the door on Saturday morning 24th Sept, and join us for DOC IN A DAY, where you can arrive with just yourself and whatever equipment you've got (if you've got any) and we'll help to team you up; or you can arrive with a fully fledged crew.

    Once we have announced the theme of this session of DOC IN A DAY (at 11am on Saturday), then you'll have until 11pm on Sunday to shoot, edit and send us your film!

    Here is a link to a short video about our competition:

    THE PRIZE:

    The pride and satisfaction of actually making something, experience, and the LDN crest of approval sent to you as a digital file for use on the cover of your winning video + invaluable feedback from professional judges.

    We only have enough time to show roughly 6 films at our following screening event. The 6 films will be selected by the LDN team (panel of 6 organisers). The selected films will then be judged at the screening event by independent TBC TV and or film industry professional judges - where a WINNER and RUNNER-UP will be selected and feedback on all of the films will be given.

    Look out for the screening event on our Facebook and Meetup pages - it's usually held within 2 weeks of the competition at Cafe 1001 near Brick Lane, East London.

    We hope to see you there!
