Dear Stranger, My name is Greg and I am an experienced indie filmmaker and founder of the successful Meetup community "Filmmakers United". I am currently directing my first feature film, called 51 Degrees. I love going out at Night to shoot some beautiful video or a good time lapse but being by myself in a city like London comes with it's problems. "Why don't I go with others who enjoy the same things?", I thought. So here it is.. The first Meetup for Night-Time-Filmmakers based in and around Lo …

Welcome to London Independent Film Works London Independent Film Works is an Indie film production group, created by Clement Ofoedu.

Our films are  only made possible by the freely provided support of a creative crew of ambitious up-and-coming talent interested in the art of film-making. We aspire to make great films that are thought-provoking, taking the audience on an emotional ride that we hope leaves them with somethi …

Hi – Do you like music that’s eclectic, all embracing and sometimes doesn’t fit easily into a simple category and instead crosses genres of indie, funk, soul, hip-hop, jazz, world, new and interesting beats, rock, electronica, dubstep…blah blah :) I really struggled to find a music group like this so I just decided to create one myself and hoped there might be people out there who feel the same way and want to listen to exciting music. I’d love this to be a group where we can explore our  divers …

… We have had a hard time finding groups who will allow 'Newbie’s' onto a film 'set’ whether actors, camera operators, makeup artists, grips, riggers etc.  For this reason we have created our own indie film making group. We have personally invested in a small amount of equipment to start us off. Our goal is to enhance our skills by creating and working on some short projects from inception to completion. Hopefully we will form a friendly, reliable, re-useable, go-get team that can grow with us in …

Wouldn't it be cool if you could call up a few friends and watch something like "House Party" again...on a big screen?

First: This group is open to everyone who is a film lover, so join the group Second: Everyone in the group can suggest films. (CLICK HERE to vote on suggested films) Third: Reserve a place for upcoming events, turn up and enjoy the f …

… Since relocating to London we realized that the best way to network with fellow filmmakers is to actually meet them in person rather than JUST online.

So we are always looking for crew, actors etc.  We are also offering classes in HDSLR, Acting, Shooting, Editing and Directing ... feel free to contact us. Please join and if you want to know more ab …

A place where we can put forward our ideas for scripts to be discussed, decide which ones will then be further developed by the entire workshop and get hands on experience at all stages in the pre-production.

Unlike most other film meetup groups, the focus of this one is less on Hollywood / major film studio blockbusters and more on intelligent, thought-provoking, alternative cinema - i.e. contemporary and classic world cinema, arthouse, documentaries, independent ('low budget') and short films. Featured screenings (and post-film discussions) take place at a variety of cinemas/venues in and around London. If there is demand, there will also be the opportunity to attend other film-related events, such …
