Hello Film Makers

For over ten years we've been helping aspiring film makers to widen their creative horizons, whether making low-budget shorts, documentaries or full-scale movies. We collaborate, communicate and share knowledge.

Our mission is to inspire the next generation of screen-smart creatives. We bring like-minded people together in a nurturing environment. - Peter Leverick

From June 2021 we will meet on the 1st and 3rd meet Wednesday 7.30pm in Cheam, Sutton every month.

Regular Workshops

At the club we have regular workshops and guest speakers. The workshops cover a wide range of topics from "After Effects" to Sound Design.

Borrow Club Equipment

Members can use the clubs extensive equipment for free for personal shoots. For comercial shoots members get preferential rates.

Technical Sessions

We often hold technical awareness nights helping members to understand and use the club's equipment safetly and effectively in order to get a professional outcome.

Film Nights

We have regular film nights on our 4k projector showing members films and club projects. From these nights we learn, laugh and hone our skills.

Audio Equipment and Skills

Within the club we have sound engineers, designers and composers. We believe that sound is one of the most important parts of any film.

Grow Your Skills

Although we are a club for beginners as well as seasoned professional there is always room for growth. The club is also fortunate to have some industry professionals that are happy to mentor other members.

What our members say…

I joined Sutton Filmmakers about 18 months ago and in that short time the members of SFM have helped me achieve some amazing results. My first short film project, “Almost Perfect” was made with SFM and has been accepted into festivals and won an award. Emma Frayne-FordEmma Frayne-Ford - Director

When I joined the Sutton Filmmakers club, I thought I knew a lot and quickly realised I knew nothing. Now I understand a lot more but in the scheme of things I still only know a little bit. But apparently, you can teach an old dog new tricks! Paul Howard Paul Howard - Producer
