Call for pitches - SHOT BY YOU

The Digital Commissioning team is hunting for ‘gritty’ short-form docs from the next-generation of filmmakers for a YouTube strand.

We are seeking ‘immersive, gritty, moving, shocking and revolutionary’ 10-20 minute films that are at least 80% complete that can be polished and used to create a Shot By You strand as part of its YouTube True Stories channel.

The budget will be £5,000-£15,000 depending on the length of the film and how much additional work is required.

Some ‘punchy’ ideas that have not yet been shot, or are partly shot, will be considered, if they come via an indie.

All must target 16-24 year olds and reflect their lives or subject matter relevant to them, while remaining in keeping with C4’s wider factual brief.

The deadline for submissions is 30 August, ahead of an early October delivery.

To ensure we are inclusive and accessible to all, please let us know if you require any adjustments or assistance for meetings and communications with you.
