TWO SHORT NIGHTS FILM FESTIVAL

Exeter Phoenix’s Two Short Nights Film Festival is back for its 18th year with another exciting programme of screenings, talks and workshops that celebrate the vibrant world of short film. Whether you make film or love film, join us for must-see short films from across the globe, emerging local talent, and special events with industry professionals.


South West Documentary Commission | Live Pitch

Watch filmmaking teams pitch their documentary ideas in front of a live panel to try and secure the South West Documentary Commission 2020 and get funding and support for their non-fiction short film project.

The South West Documentary Film Commission is aimed at filmmakers looking for funding to realise a non-fiction short film project exploring any subject matter, which demonstrates originality within the documentary genre. The final film is required to be 5 minutes in length and may use any form production technique for delivery, such as live action, reenactment or animation.
