Fancy yourself a film maker? To celebrate 100 years of the Electric Cinema, Soho House are pleased to launch Electric Shorts, supported by Mercedes-Benz and in association with Empire. The competition gives you the chance to sit in the Director's chair and shoot your own short film.

In no more than 400 words, pitch your proposal themed on 'Desire', located in a Soho House site of your choice, and win the opportunity to shoot it for real.

Our coveted panel of experts, including Kris Thykier, Nick Jones, Claudia Winkleman, Mark Dinning, Andy Harries, Duncan Heath, Andrew Roberts, Mandy Kean, Rebekah Gilbertson, Josh Berger, Amanda Posey, Finola Dwyer and Mike Goodridge will grant the 7 finalists a £5000 budget to make their film.

The shorts will be showcased right here online, at the Electric Cinema, and the Aubin Cinema – leaving the public to hand pick our winner!

All that is left to do, is get those creative juices flowing – we look forward to receiving your entry!
