The Lift-Off Global Network exists with the aim of launching filmmakers careers. Our International Virtual Reality Showcase is an event held at Pinewood Studios, which aims to celebrate and nurture those leading the greatest technological advance in the past hundred years. It incorporates screenings, discussions, feedback and presentations by organisations eager to support filmmakers venturing into the new and exciting generation of VR filmmaking.

Following on from the massive success of our First-Time Filmmaker Showcase, with one of our premier team's winning an Academy Award, we have designed this new showcase programme intended for VR filmmakers - with the overall goal for all who are selected to have a head start within the film industry.

Partnering up with the selection of The International Animators Showcase, you will be joined by skilled animators carving their path in the film industry.

There will be opportunities throughout the day to have your questions answered and this will enable filmmakers who attend the event to forge long-lasting relationships which will be essential in the future! For each production team, there will also be a group peer review session. In this session, there will be a full discussion about the various films which have been screened during the day based on feedback from the attendees. Filmmakers will also have the opportunity to have a one-on-one meet and greet with the Lift-Off Co-Founders James Bradley and Ben Pohlman.

Awards & Prizes.

Our goal is to offer as much as possible to all who submit, our officially selected filmmakers, our nominees and winners. At the submission level we offer value for your submission fee with exclusive content and a 24-page e-book, highlighting...

♠ Submitting to the large festivals

♠ Highlighting the right festival submission strategy
♠ Some golden rules for success
♠ Tips on how to start building a realistic filmmaking career
