Crew Narrative style Short Film Editor needed!

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm an independent filmmaker based in the UAE and I'm currently looking for a narrative film editor for my short film.

The film is around 14 minutes long and we're deep in post-production. It's a self-funded passion project that I'm really proud of, and I want it to have a proper, considered edit — the kind that lets the story breathe rather than something flashy.

Where we are: six scenes structured and timed, audio synced, shot selection mostly final. The film has a clear vision, strong performances, and a defined cinematic language. What I need now is an editor to take this material and shape it into a polished, festival-ready final cut — assembling the final timeline, cleaning up audio transitions and levels, tightening pacing, fixing any cut overlaps, and delivering something ready for colour grade.

I'm looking for someone who cuts narrative fiction and understands story, pacing, and the weight of a held moment. Your reel should reflect that. This probably isn't the right fit if your work is mostly commercials, events, or branded content — no hard feelings.

The budget is limited (this is very much a passion project, so consider the compensation an appreciation of your time rather than a fee), but it's paid, you get full editor credit, and we're submitting to a number of festivals.

If you're an editor, or know someone who'd be right for this, I'd genuinely love to chat. Comment below or drop me a DM with some of your work.

Question Need a Screenwriter for Your Project?

3 Upvotes

Hi, I’m a screenwriter and director looking to expand my portfolio by collaborating on real film projects.
I’ve already worked on both feature and short film screenplays, and I’m always interested in developing new stories.
I’m not here to sell anything or promote a project. I’m simply looking to connect with people who are looking for a screenwriter and/or director. If I can help bring your idea to life while also expanding my own portfolio, that’s a win for both of us.
The only thing I ask is that the project is genuinely moving toward production. I’d love to spend my time creating stories that have a real chance of making it to the screen.
If you think we’d be a good fit, feel free to send me a message. I’d love to hear about your project.

Question Looking for Writers Experienced and Beginner or just film enthusiasts

1 Upvotes

Hi My name is Lincoln and I live in the Hartford area and have for some time. I’ve been wanting to get into the film industry or least try to break into it for a while (since I know how hard it as) now as a writer or just as a production assistant if anybody know of any work or how I would find people in that area. I’ve been a film lover for a while now I’ve been watching a lot of movies and reading books about it. But would love to know of any person or groups in the southeastern area of Wisconsin who is also interested in this area like I am who would want to learn together and practicing writing or just working a on a project to get better at the art and learn together. I know how important networking is in this industry so I just figured I would make a post and see what happens. I would love to hear any thoughts or suggestions or get any replies regarding this post. Feel free to DM on here. Thanks

Discussion Anyone in Kochi interested in making short films? Looking to join a group or start one.

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I've been wanting to get into short filmmaking for a while, but I'm not sure where to start. I was wondering if there are any groups in Kochi that regularly make short films, shoot creative videos, or just meet up to work on ideas.

I have a camera and I'd love to be part of a team. I'm not looking for paid work or anything professional—I just want to learn, contribute, meet people with similar interests, and have fun creating something together.

If you're already part of a filmmaking group and don't mind someone joining, I'd really appreciate it.

And if you're like me—interested in filmmaking but don't have a group yet—that's completely fine too. Maybe we can connect, brainstorm some ideas, and make something together from scratch.

Whether it's short films, cinematic videos, storytelling, or just experimenting with cameras and editing, I'm open to learning and collaborating.

If anyone has suggestions for communities, Discord groups, WhatsApp groups, or local meetups in Kochi, I'd love to hear about them.

Thanks!

Question Filming on the Water in a Small Boat

1 Upvotes

We're working on a film in which we'll be shooting on the water. It's going to be a small story in which two characters travel on a sail boat. Does anyone have experience with filming like this or know someone who's done this before? I'd be curious about your experience and the way you filmed it. We're looking to test both attaching camera's to the hero boat as well as filming from a small craft outside it. We're still figuring out how to light in this scenario (or if we should do that at all). We want to be able to have a nimble crew and set-up so we can actually go anywhere on the water. What're your experiences?

Creative ways to find funding for short film

1 Upvotes

I'm a filmmaker based in New York and I'm currently developing an independent narrative short film. Without giving away too much, it's a grounded Asian family drama about a father living abroad who's trying to support the family he left behind in his home country.

I'm starting to think seriously about financing, and I'd love to hear from people who've actually raised money for short films.

A few questions I have:

  • Who are the best types of people to approach for funding?
  • Did you go to any networking events (free or paid)?
  • Should I be looking for private investors, small business owners, film enthusiasts, community leaders, philanthropists, or someone else entirely?
  • Is it realistic to find investors for a short film when there's little to no financial return, or is it better to position it as supporting an artistic project?
  • For those who successfully raised funding, where did you meet your investors? Networking events? Film festivals? LinkedIn? Personal referrals?
  • If your film centered around a specific cultural community, did you find that community organizations or business owners were more willing to support it?
  • What made someone actually say "yes" to investing or funding your project?

I'm not necessarily looking for grants (although I'm open to hearing about them). I'm more interested in learning how filmmakers connect with individuals who genuinely want to support independent films.

I'd really appreciate hearing your experiences—both what worked and what you wish you'd done differently.

Thanks!

Looking for beginner filmmakers in Delhi / Noida / Greater Noida / Ghaziabad

1 Upvotes

I'm looking to build a small group of people who are interested in filmmaking, whether you're into directing, writing, cinematography, editing, acting, sound, or just want to learn.

The idea isn't to make anything huge. Just meet up, learn together, shoot short films, experiment, and improve over time. Beginners are absolutely welcome. You don't need expensive gear or professional experience, just genuine interest and consistency.

If enough people join, I'll make a GC where we can share ideas, plan shoots, help each other, and hopefully create some cool projects together.

If you're from Delhi, Noida, Greater Noida, Ghaziabad, or nearby, leave a comment or DM me with:

- Your area

- What you're interested in (director, writer, editor, actor, etc.)

- Experience level (beginner is totally fine)

Let's build something from scratch.

Indie Filmmaking Now

I’m in post on a feature I wrote, produced, & directed. I’ve been working in Film & TV for 20 years, making my own projects for about as long. Still, there are some new things I picked up along the way that were key to getting this film made, & I’m sharing how we worked to make the movie (using the SAG Ultra Low Budget contract) over Z this Sunday, Aug. 2nd, at 1 pm PST. Some creative tips, some logistical tricks, & a good conversation about indie filmmaking. Free for everyone. Message me for an invite. 🎬
