Hey everybody!

We have been working hard over the past few weeks to develop the next stage of ShoutFILM! Thanks for all your feedback it has been extremely helpful!

So Whats New?

New Design - We have given ShoutFILM a little facelift and improved the overall usability of ShoutFILM.
HD Films - You can now upload your films, showreels and trailers in 720p HD!
Video Player - Improved video player and streaming.
Networks - A new section in the Community has been created called 'Networks' where members from Staffordshire University can connect with fellow students! We will also be introducing new networks soon!

Hey all!

You may have noticed the new SF Player which has had a little facelift but what you may not have noticed is the new streaming feature. This allows you to seek back and forth anywhere on the timeline without having to wait for it to load!

We have lots of new features coming to the SF in the near future so keep an eye out!

Hey Folks! Just a quick update.

ShoutFILM has been live for nearly a month now and we are really pleased with the start we have made. As far as we know all of the bugs have been ironed out and the site is working really well.

Thanks to everyone who has signed up so far and to those who have uploaded any of their work, its nice to see what other people are up to. If any one has any work that they have done which they're not horribly ashamed of please feel free to add it to the site. You can do this by going to the 'My Profile' drop down box in the top left and clicking 'My Projects' you can then choose what area of the site you would like to upload your work to for example 'Cinema' or 'Studio'. We are looking forward to seeing more films.

One final thing if you have any suggestions about how the site could be improved either leave one of us a private message, send us an email or post on the support forum.

Once again thanks for your support.

Andy

Our hard work has finally paid off and as of 4.30 this morning (Thursday) the ShoutFILM beta went live.

We invite you to take a look around the site and encourage you to sign up in order to access the full list of features that ShoutFILM has to offer. Sign up is free and easy! Just fill in the form on the home page or click here.

You can expect to see a number of additions to the site as it grows and matures, some will be minor others will be a lot bigger. Rest assured you can expect constant commitment and support from the ShoutFILM team!

If you are unsure about anything please leave one of the staff a comment or send them an email, alternatively you can post on the support forums to receive help or leave us your suggestions and feedback.

I would like to welcome you once again to the newest film making community
