10x10 is... NOT a pitching forum, or a financing workshop
10x10 is... ALL about the filmmaking
Friday 10th June, 4.15 - 5.45pm | Channing Hall
10x10 is a free project development workshop, run as a partnership between DFG and Doculink. Filmmakers can screen up to 10 minutes of their non-fiction works-in-progress and receive 10 minutes of directed feedback from the group. It's a great opportunity to feel part of an independent doc community and, crucially, a rare chance to gain a hands-on perspective of what works, what doesn't and why.
Submissions are now closed.
From a recent participant at 10x10 at the East End Film Fest:
"10x10 peddles purely in feedback – good, bad, but hopefully always constructive. A unique opportunity, it provides that other crucial element – alongside money – that abounds in studio or broadcast infrastructures, but is in distinctly short supply at the independent level: the opportunity of a second, third and fourth opinion; the thoughts of an unbiased audience during post-production."
Work screened can include trailers, excerpts from a rough cut, key scenes and even rushes.
The event will be followed with drinks as per, once again courtesy of the lovely folk at Audio Network, who provide documentary filmmakers with 36,000+ music tracks that are cleared for multi-platform, worldwide - forever.
We can't wait! See you there.

I have not been selected for the meetmarket at Sheffield DocFest but still I have the opportunity to show what I do and my capacities. This is a great consolation. :-)
