Still suffering from Twilight withdrawal? Fear not - the popular vampire franchise is now being made into five short films that will be shown exclusively on Facebook.

Film studio Lionsgate is championing the new content, called The Storytellers - New Creative Voices of The Twilight Saga, and will select five female directors to make their own shorts based on the characters.

The five directors will be mentored by a group which will include Twilight star Kristen Stewart and the author of the best-selling novels, Stephanie Meyer.

Meyer said: "The female voice is something that has become more and more important to me as I've worked in the film industry."

She added: "I'm honoured to be working with Women in Film, Lionsgate and Facebook on a project dedicated to giving more women a chance to be heard creatively."

Fans can watch the series and help pick the grand prize winner through Facebook and Tongal.
