About this event

  • Event lasts 2 days 21 hours

This is a group founded by Jason Hau and Jeremy Ting.

We've both been messing around in the local film scene for over 10 years, hitting up all sorts of events and competitions. We totally love making films!

After a while, we started feeling a bit... unsatisfied. A lot of events felt too serious, too much pressure, or just not really about the fun of creating with cool people.

So, we had an idea. Why not just make our own thing? A space where you don't have to be a pro, you don't have to overthink, and you definitely don't have to spend a ton of cash.

That's how The Film Group Singapore was born! We wanted to strip it back to the good stuff, focusing on three super simple things:

Make Friends - Meet awesome people who are into the same creative vibe.

Make Films - Just grab a camera (even your phone!) and shoot something cool, fast, run-and-gun style. No fuss!

Watch Films - Share what everyone made, chill out, and enjoy the show together.

Basically, we built the club we always wish existed. It's all about keeping it easy, getting creative, and having a blast with your new film crew.

So, come join us! Let's make some videos together and have some fun. We can't wait to hang out and create with you! Feel free to follow us on Instagram and WhatsApp for more information!

Frequently asked questions

Who can join this filmmaking challenge? Do i need experience?

Absolutely anyone! Whether you've never touched a camera or you're already a mini content creator, you're super welcomed. This challenge is all about making friends and making films together, no matter your skill level.

How much does it cost to participate?

Good news - it's completely FREE to join! We're all about making filmmaking accessible and fun for everyone.

Do i need to bring my own fancy film equipment?

Nope, not at all! This is a "Run and Gun" Challenge, so grab whatever you have - your smartphone. a compact camera, or even just your brilliant ideas with AI sprinkled on it! The main goal is to be creative and collaborative, not to show off the latest gear.

What if I don't know anyone or don't have a team?

That's totally fine! Our Thursday meetup is actually designed for this. We kick things off with fun icebreaker games to help you make friends, and then we guide everyone through the team formation process. You'll definitely find your film crew there!

What if I can't finish my film?

Think short, snappy, and spontaneous! The whole idea is to get creative, not overthink it, just export what you have! Remember, finish is better than perfect! make films quickly over the weekend for us all to watch the films together on Sunday!
