Membership Levels

Below are the membership level benefits. Membership is on a rolling quarterly (3 month) basis. There are no penalties for cancellation.

Members can upgrade or downgrade at any time, with charges prorated immediately. Any price rises will only apply at the point of upgrade/downgrade, or if membership is allowed to lapse.

Discount

Each level of membership has a set level of discount. Casual members have none, whereas, Obsessed members enjoy a discount of 50% on shoot days and 35% on workshops.

Cost Per Shoot Day

Release Date Delay

When we release the date for each shoot in each area, all the roles are available to purchase. Obsessed members are notified first, then a day later the Enthusiast members, then on day 3 Keen members and then on day 4 the roles are offered to Casual members. Obviously, paying members have an advantage over Casual members.

Can Submit Scripts

All membership levels can submit a script for consideration for our next shoot. If selected, you will get the opportunity to work with a mentor to develop and flesh out your idea.

Admin Cost for Script Submission

We make a charge for script submission as there is an administrative overhead in dealing with every script we receive. However, Obsessed and Enthusiast members can submit scripts for free, all other members have to pay a small charge.

Credit on Film

If a member purchases a role in the film they will automatically receive a credit in the film. All membership levels receive a credit.

View During Festival Run

Most festivals require films to be out of the public domain, so only paid members will be able to view a finished film until its festival run ends.

Use in Showreel

All paid membership levels are permitted to use the final film as part of a showreel. If appropriate, it should be made clear of the role played in the making of the film.

Download Film Rushes

Both Enthusiast and Obsessed members will be able to access the rushes from any shoot they participate in. They can be used by the member to create their own personal version of the film that they have taken part in. However, that version must not be published in any public forum.

Vote on Monthly Scripts

Both Enthusiast and Obsessed members will be able to vote on the scripts they like and the winner will be the next film we shoot. Each member will be able to cast one vote.

Apply for HOD roles

Both Enthusiast and Obsessed members are eligable to apply for the HOD (Head of Department) roles such as 1st Assistant Director, Director of Photography etc.

Apply for Director Role

Only Obsessed members will be able to apply for the role of Director. This crucial role is pivotal to the success of the film and as such, it affects the outcome for all the actors and crew of the film. For this reason, we vet all the members that apply for this role. They have to take on a lesser role first and show us they understand what is required of them.

Apply for Mentor Role

Obsessed members will be able to progress to become mentors. Upon reaching the required skill level in a particular role, they will be elevated to the membership level of a mentor (in that role).

At this point, they no longer pay for shoot days, they can attend the shoot as a mentor in that role to help other less experienced members.

If they are taking on roles outside their level of expertise, normal charges apply.
