Videography opportunities will arise on a frequent case-by-case basis, so be sure to keep an eye on any available tasks, along with the workshops hosted by the society every week.
Short Docs/Projects will look for a slightly more committed and experienced crew to work on certain projects with UCL societies – look out for the chance to get your ideal role for a given project online.
Term Docs will begin with an application process to send in your creative idea and practical goals, before a project is selected and produced with support from Film Society. Look out for dates and deadlines on our Facebook group and page.
To stay up to date with each opportunity, connect with the Society online – join our Facebook group, like our Facebook page, and sign up to the Film Society newsletter here.
FOR DOCUMENTARY ENTHUSIASTS
The FilmSoc Documentaries group on Facebook will also be the place to find updates on documentary events happening across London, from screenings to workshops.
The society’s screening programme offers free film events for members every week, including a documentary presence.
