Are you an aspiring filmmaker? Do you want to see your own short film up there on the big-screen? 

Well now's your chance with the launch of Dream to Screen, an exciting new short film initiative set up by the Cineworld Foundation and Media Trust.

Dream to Screen aims to discover the very best filmmaking talent aged 16 to 25 from across the UK. So if you fancy yourself as the next Spielberg or Scorsese, get involved!

Finalists will be mentored through Media Trust's youth mentoring scheme by industry experts including BAFTA award-winning director, Michael Hines. The finalists will also win thousands of pounds worth of industry-standard equipment, contributed by the Jack Petchey Foundation, to produce their films and to use on future projects. 

And here's the really exciting part -- the winner will have their final film shown at an exclusive red-carpet awards evening at a London Cineworld Cinema, at the end of September 2014! Their film will also be shown in pre-reels in Cineworld cinemas nationwide during October 2014.

So, how to get started? We want you to submit a 90 second short film pitch, based on the theme 'Inspiration' at www.dreamtoscreen.org between 7th May 2014 and 16th June 2014. 

Pitches can be shot on a mobile phone and no previous filmmaking experience is required -- passion and ideas are what matter! 

Applications must be submitted by midday on 16th June 2014. Best of luck!
