MORE ABOUT STRAIGHT 8 SHOOTOUT

SHOOTOUT IS our INTER-COMPANY CHALLENGE TO CREATE THE BEST SHORT FILM ON SUPER 8 - WITHOUT EDITING OR POST-PRODUCTION - AND TO SEE IT - FOR THE FIRST TIME - WITH THE WORLD WATCHING

companies make a 2.5 minute film in one of the hardest ways on earth and put their company name to it

they shoot on just one roll of super 8 film with no retakes and no post-production and then submit an original soundtrack ‘blind’

no matter how (or whether) it comes out, the first time anyone will see their film is with the world and their competitors watching at our live online premiere or cinema premieres

this is not for the faint-hearted

immediately after the films play the entered companies vote for their top three, excluding their own

we will award gold, silver and bronze trophies during the stream

and donate the prize pot to charities chosen by the three winning companies

check out all the companies who’ve braved shootout before and see the growing list of charities that shootout has benefited - all on our shootout page
