    It will be determined by the length of films selected but we expect there'll be around six films chosen.

  • Hi Rafael,

    I'm afraid you have to submit a completed short film to this brief.

    If you're looking for money to help fund the production of your short then keep an eye for our Shorts fund which will be relaunching soon.

  • Hi Joseph,

    Yes, you can apply more than once, but bear in mind the different types of things that Flatpack are interested in receiving.
