The Cutting Room
 

 

Are you a budding Hitchcock or Spielberg, Campion or Coppola? If you've ever fancied yourself as a filmmaker then you're just a click away from making your own mini-masterpiece by using our addictive online editing tool.

It's easy - start by browsing through a selection of film and TV extracts taken from the BFI National Archive . You can then cut and splice your choices together with your own webcam footage, add some audio from our extensive library of tracks, et voila! you've created your very own movie!

Each month we add new and inspiring material to The Cutting Room so there's plenty to work with, just select the Library tab of the application. Begin editing right now by launching the editing tool below. Or you can follow the link to the Rushes project, our innovative new partnership with Screen West Midlands.
