Title, logline, city, and every role you need. A human reviews every post before it goes live.
People near you pick a role. You see everyone on your private responses page.
You talk over Instagram. No emails, no phone numbers, no exact addresses, ever.
From the founder
“Hey, I’m James Murphy. I’m 16, I make movies, and I started High School Filmmakers because finding a crew is the hardest part of making a film when you’re in high school. You can write the script and storyboard every shot, but you can’t shoot alone — you need a DP, actors, somebody to hold the boom. Nobody hands you that network at our age, so I built it. Post your project, find your people, and go make the movie.”
— James Murphy, founder, 16
What this is
A network for students making movies right now - not someday. Most high school filmmakers are the only one at their school; HSF exists to fix that. We're not a festival, a distributor or a competition: nobody here is judging your film or charging you to be seen. The point is the people - once you have a crew, everything else follows. Questions? DM @highschoolfilmmakers.
