A fantastic new competition has launched for low budget short filmmakers. The Skinny / Innis & Gunn Short Film Competition aims to find the best short film made in Scotland and produced for under £1,000. The winner will be given a £3,000 budget to make a second short film which will premiere at next year’s Glasgow Short Film Festival.

The panel judging the competition includes DigiCult’s Paul Welsh and representatives from The Skinny, Innis & Gunn and the Glasgow Short Film Festival.

Individuals or groups of filmmakers are welcome to submit their films to The Skinny by 30th June 2014. Please check The Skinny’s website for details on entry requirements and how to submit your film. Good luck everyone!
