      Filmmakers:
      As long as you’re open to ideas, flexible and up for a challenge, anyone with a bit of experience can apply! From students to professionals, its free to apply for everyone – successful applicants will simply need to join the SYFN for an annual fee of £30 (£20 for Students) at: www.syfn.org/membership/membershipform/ The SYFN is an industry hub for local independent filmmakers to support and connect with one another. See more about our membership at www.syfn.org/membership

      Musicians:
      If you’re making music, we want to hear from you. From metal to motown, classical to classic rock, songwriters to super-groups, no style is off limits! Get your mitts on a music video for your new single or that upcoming EP launch and get it fast. We don’t call it 2Weeks2MakeIt for nothing!

      All we ask from our musicians is a one off payment of £75. It really is that simple – and probably the cheapest music video you’ll ever make! Once paired up randomly with a filmmaker, together you’ll develop a music video that promotes your musical talents and the ideas you develop in your team. In just 2 short weeks you’ll see the finished film on a big screen at the the Showroom Cinema on May 8th when the judges and audience will decide who takes home the cash prizes – and more!
