Virgin Media Shorts aims to seek out, promote and profile Britain’s best short film makers, giving them a multi platform arena to showcase their work including online, TV, mobile, internet and on cinema screens across the UK.

Filmmakers can now submit their short film (no longer than 2mins, 30 seconds) online and take part in the competition.

The top 12 films will be blown up to a 35 mm print and shown on 211 cinema screens across the UK. The winner, selected by respected filmmakers in the industry, will be given the chance to work directly with the UK Film Council and Virgin Media to develop and produce their next short film with a budget of up to £30,000.
