Nine filmmakers/filmmaking teams are currently developing their short film project ideas under this year's Digital Shorts scheme. These nine will be whittled down to a final 4 which will go into full production. The teams will be blogging during the development process and you can find out more about them all below.

Digital Shorts is the South West region’s key development and production initiative for new and emerging filmmakers.
This year, we’re looking to commission 4 films, with running times of no more than 10 minutes, at budgets of between £10,000 - £15,000. All themes, styles and subjects are possible including animation and documentary.

The commissioned films will be drawn from a ‘development pool’ of 9 projects/filmmaking teams who we're supporting through an intense 8 week development phase, working with a professional development executive, producers and other collaborators.
The 4 greenlit films will go into production over Summer 2010, for delivery in August 2010.

Find out more about the filmmaking teams and their projects here.
