What do you have available to you through your sixth form film department to enable you to make your 5 minute short drama
Through using the schools film department this allows me to have a wide range of equipment and resources which I can use in my short drama For example even the availability to use props and film on the school premises as well being able to use my teachers advise and the other students around me will really benefit the drama as a whole as everyone will have different options and new ideas to pick up on.Not only will the knowledge of the teachers help me but also the advanced to equipment to help me execute this drama the right way for example some equipment could be cameras as a whole as well as camera key like tripods and different grips to help me stabilise and complete the shot successfully. Not only this but also the complexed editing software will allow me to smoothly edit the scenes together and add any sound effects etc.
If you weren't attached to a sixth form what procedures would you follow as an independent film producer to get the money for your film 
If I was in this position I would either use family and friends to get the money tighter or use the BFI network this is a funding scheme this a scheme that can help writers directors from all ages to achieve there goal in the film industry they typically support films that bring exciting new voices to the screen and also help to advance the careers of the film makers down the line. Simerly another funding scheme is Shore Scripts this is a company that funds filmmakers both in the US and UK making it more eligible and accessible for more people this also allows the company to target more customers but there is a requirement for the script length it must be between 2-30 pages. Shore Scripts say that the minim amount they would grant is £10,000 and the maximum is £15,000
