Unique filming opportunity for Shooters

Shooting People and Kew have teamed up to present Through Kew: A Film Competition. We're giving you an exclusive opportunity to shoot part of - or the entirety - of your film at one of Kew's unusual locations. All you need to do is submit a 250 word treatment of your film and an outline of how you would use Kew to its full potential. A handful of filmmaking teams will be shortlisted by a selection committee and notified by 16 July. The films will be part of a public screening and will be hosted online by Shooting People and Kew, with a potential run at festivals.

Kew is a World Heritage Site, recently voted the world's favourite gardens on Trip Advisor. Over its 250 year existence it has witnessed incredible history, and has become the world's leading centre for knowledge about plants. And it's not everyone who gets to film at Kew, so this is a one off.

• Your film must be no longer than 10 minutes.
• Your crew must be no larger than 5 people.
• You must be able to complete a recky during the week of 19-23 July 2010.
