Hey! I’m looking for fellow filmmakers in Mumbai, writers, directors, actors, cinematographers, editors, basically anyone who’s interested in making stuff together.
I’d really like to find a group of people who are interested in writing scripts, making short films, experimenting with ideas and eventually creating stuff we can submit to film festivals. Just a bunch of people who genuinely enjoy making things and want to work on projects together.
I’m a college student, and although my college has a film club, I haven’t really found the kind of opportunities or work that I connect with there, so I thought I’d try finding people outside college. I’m also very open to joining people who are already working on projects and need someone to collaborate with!
I do have classes, so I obviously can’t commit to doing this full time, but I’d love to work on things alongside college, preferably with people who are in a similar position or can work around that.
I’d also really like to start an Instagram page with a few people where we can make skits and short form content, especially English based stuff. I feel like there’s a lot we could experiment with, and it would be fun to have people to bounce ideas off of and actually create things with.
I’m quite a sci-fi person and would love to explore that genre and other unconventional ideas. I’m not really into mainstream Bollywood since most of the stuff they put out doesn’t appeal to me that much, but I do understand that it’s difficult to find opportunities outside of that space, so I want to start somewhere and work my way towards making the kind of stuff I actually want to make.
You don’t need to have a huge portfolio or anything, I’m happy to meet people who are just starting out too, as long as they’re genuinely interested in collaborating and actually doing something with their ideas.
Also, I did make a post about this a while ago, but then exams got really hectic and I never got around to reaching out to people or actually doing anything about it. I’d love to try again now! I’m very much up for meetups where we can discuss ideas, brainstorm content, talk about films and hopefully get some projects going instead of just leaving everything at the talking stage.
23F, mentioning this last because I’m looking for people who are genuinely interested in filmmaking and collaborating, please no creeps or weird DMs
If any of this sounds like something you’d be interested in, feel free to reach out! :)
