Welcome
Welcome to Cinecam We are an enthusiastic society of film makers dedicated to promoting the art of cinema. We provide a platform on which Cambridge based film makers can build their skills contacts and project, be they old or new to the discipline.
Cinecam provides basic workshops for budding directors, editors and screenwriters. We also lend a helping hand to film projects, whether that consists of loaning out equipment, or simply bringing together a like minded crew.
Moreover we invite prominent members of the film industry to share their experience at speaker events, held in the Cambridge Union. Also, to inspire creativity in our members Cinecam holds competitions each term (such as the Insomnia project held in conjunction with Apple) where members put their practical skills to use.

About Us
Cinecam exists to provide a community of filmmakers in Cambridge, consisting not only of university members but also ARU students and other Cambridge residents.
Our aim is to allow everyone with an interest in making films to do so. We help bring to fruition people's projects by producing films as a society (including a Freshers' Film) as well as offering contacts, advice and equipment for members pursuing independent projects.
We run a number of competitions throughout the year culminating in our showpiece the Cinecam film festival, which showcases the best filmmaking talent. We also organise events including workshops, talks by industry professionals and screenings of student films. This website aims to keep people abreast of everything we are involved in and to provide a forum through which filmmakers can get in contact with each other.
History
Cinecam is in its third year after taking over from CFTV (Cambridge Film and Television) in the summer of 2003. It retains the crucial elements of the old society, such as the provision of equipment and the annual film festival, but has added new events, projects and competitions to make the film-making scene more vibrant. It has grown significantly in membership and profile over the last two years and intends to continue growing at an even faster rate this year.
