UMFC Pitch Night: From Script to Screen

Have a vision but no team? Or are you a cinematographer, editor, or sound designer looking for your next big project? Join the University of Melbourne Filmmakers Club for Pitch Night—the ultimate matchmaking event for student creators.

This is your chance to step into the spotlight, share your story, and build the crew that will help you bring it to life.


When & Where

  • Date: Thursday, 2 April 2026

  • Time: 6:30 PM – 9:00 PM

  • Location: PAR-104-G-G18-Flexible Learning Space (62)


The Lowdown

  • The Pitch: You have 5–7 minutes to sell us on your concept. Whether you use a lookbook, a script snippet, or just your voice, make it count! Send in your presentations to our email or just come with them on the day!

  • The Clock is Ticking: To keep things moving, any pitch exceeding the 7-minute mark will be cut off. Stay sharp and focused!

  • No Limits on Genre: We welcome everything from psychological thrillers and mockumentaries to experimental shorts and heart-wrenching dramas.

  • Club Support: Projects pitched at this event are eligible for UMFC support, including access to our equipment pool and assistance with securing venues for your shoot.

Content & Safety

We believe in creative freedom; however, we want to keep our community safe. If your pitch involves potentially triggering themes (e.g., violence, self-harm, or trauma), you must include a brief disclaimer at the start of your presentation.


Ready to take the director's chair? Come prepared to pitch, or just come to listen and find a project to join. We’ll see you there!
