FOURDOCS
FourDocs is a broadband channel from Channel 4 that is THE place to watch and upload four-minute documentaries. This is the first time a major broadcaster has offered this kind of opportunity to everyone, and for free. Make your film and upload it. It's as simple as that.
What you get:
Step-by-step guides on how to plan, shoot, edit and compress your fact-based documentary. Access to an archive of documentary greats and interviews for inspiration and the chance to have your film uploaded for the whole world to view.
Then what?
Apart from a great opportunity for any filmmakers to get their work out there, other FourDocs users can review your film, offering their comments and constructive criticism. And Channel 4's very own Kate Vogel - commissioning editor for 3 Minute Wonder - keeps a close eye on all uploaded films to spot talented filmmakers she can commission for this innovative strand.
FourDocs filmmaker Tomas Leach has recently been commissioned to make a series for 3 Minute Wonder after he showcased his film, The Glass-Eye Maker on the site.
Deadline
There is no deadline. You can upload and view films whenever you want. So what are you waiting for?
