Send us your film's web address

Welcome to the next stage of FourDocs! Instead of uploading films directly to the FourDocs site, please send us a link to where we can view your film on an external video website. If you're looking for advice on where to publish your film, read our advice section in About Fourdocs.

We'll review some of these films in the FourDocs blog and the ones we like will still be in the running for a screening on 3 Minute Wonder.

We regret we're not able to review every film link we receive.

As well as being in with the chance of having your film screened on 3MW, you could be shown nationally in our touring Snap! programme, and there'll be other exciting opportunities for you to develop as documentary filmmakers. So please send us links to your films, amd keep your ear to the ground!

By sending your film's web address to us, you agree to the Creative Commons license as set out in FourDocs' terms and conditions and also Channel 4's rights as set out in Channel 4's Terms and Conditions.
