The rules for the One-Minute Ghost Stories Online Film Festival are simple. The short films must be one minute long, must be horror and must be filmed either in your own home or garden, adhering to the relevant social-distancing measures in your area. Anyone with a decent camera phone and a great idea can get involved, and filmmakers are welcome to submit multiple entries.

“At Hex, we’re passionate about making film accessible to all,” Lawrie Brewster of Hex Studios said in a statement. “Being based in Fife, Scotland, far from the traditional hubs of industry, we understand the difficulties of being a creative on the fringes. It can be very isolating. We’re very lucky these days to have the tools to collaborate together online, whatever our geography, so we wanted to harness those tools to connect aspiring creatives, and also to give their work a platform with our growing YouTube channel. That’s really what Channel Hex is all about.”
