THE RULES
​
PRINCIPLES OF THE GUERILLA FEATURES MOVEMENT:
​
THE WRITER IS THE FOCUS
The script is sacred and must be support.
ONLY FOUR ACTORS MAY ENTER.
No crowd. No chorus. No cavalry. Just the minimum number of souls required to strip a story bare.
​​
ONE LOCATION, NO ESCAPE.
Drama emerges from limits. One setting. Infinite tension.
​
TEN DAYS, NO EXCUSES.
Shoot fast. Shoot focused. Capture lightning before it fades.
​
IT MUST BE FEATURE LENGTH
90 minutes of storytelling can make a real impact on the audience.
​
£5,000 OR LESS.
The world is overspent. Art must not be. Your creativity is your currency.
​
CAMERAS ARE TOOLS, NOT GODS.
Shoot on what you have. An iPhone. A DSLR. A potato. We don't care. Your vision is not in the lens, it's in the words and the actions
​​
​ALL EFFECTS MUST BE PRACTICAL.
CGI is forbidden. The imagination of the audience is sacred, so try your best to use it.
​
EVERY LINE IS IMPORTANT
No filler. No fluff. When there are no distractions, words are all you have.
