Synopsis

AFMG Logo

The Aspiring Film Makers Group (AFMG) is a non profit association of people who are passionate about film making but not necessarily working in or get their primary income from the film industry. The group provides a means of Networking both with amateur and professional film makers. In addition, members share learning experiences and work together on film projects.  Any profits generated go back to the group to make further projects and facilities possible. In time the group will own its own professional film equipment for loan to members wishing to work on projects.

The organisational ideology is to have independently run chapters operating all over the world which interact via the internet and work in a co-operative manner.

AFMG Skills and Talent Registry

Skill Registry

AFMG Skills and Talent Registry

After much searching for a software solution to integrate a Skills and Talent Registry database into our AFMG website we are now finally proud to announce the search is over and the Registry is now operational!

The online database currently hosts three main film making categories: Crew, Cast and Services. Where Crew deals with those at the back end of a camera, Cast deals with those at the front end of a camera and Services deals with anything relating to the film making process.

The Skill and Talent Registry will be online 24/7 and available for all (Guest and members) to Search, Browse or View its content. We hope this new service will further provide our Amateur Film Making Community with greater opportunities in the future.

Members are obviously encouraged to enter their details into the registry which is located via the AFMG website mainmenu or directly via this link AFMG Skills & Talent Registry

Showcase - Video Gallery

The AFMG Video Gallery is an ideal place to browse through an extensive category of Videos ranging from trailers to a collection of AFMG productions from around the world.

This gallery will also showcase productions such as Shorts, Documentaries and Features from amateur film makers and provide a means to view full length or preview version prior to purchase.

 
Full Length Documentaries

Full Length Documentaries

AFMG Video Gallery Full Length Documentaries

We are pleased to announce the release of full length documentaries available for viewing in our video gallery.

There are currently 13 titles available for viewing but more will be added as we find other titles either released in the public domain or for which we have obtain permission from the film maker.

The online video player presents a internet delivery satisfactory image but as film makers we aspire to have our work seen as the film maker had intented. These days that typcially means big screen 1080p HD. Also as most documentary film makers find it difficult to finance productions we highly recommend that our members either buy a DVD (should one still be available) or send a donatation to the film maker of choice if you find their work moves you to that.

As well as being educational on the topic at hand, the viewing of documentaries is also educational for aspiring documentary film makers too by using the "learn by looking" method! For this reason alone this section of our website will be an invaluable educational resource.

Note: This section is only available to registered members.
