dojo films is a group of filmmakers based in and around newcastle upon tyne.
we also put on filmmaking events, this was our last one (click on picture to find out more):
held in newcastle, filmmaking teams had 48 hours to script, shoot and edit a film no longer than 5 minutes
there is a myspace group for the challenge, it can be found at:

we are short film-makers and film event organisers, spending our day jobs working in various post-production roles for local production companies.
