The
Philadelphia 48 Hour Film Project
Filmmakers Take
to the Streets
The weekend of April
25, filmmakers throughout the Philadelphia area will take part
in the 48 Hour Film Project.
The 48 Hour Film Project
is a wild and sleepless weekend in which you and a team make
a movie — write, shoot, edit and score it — in just 48 hours.
You get a character, a prop, a line of dialogue and a genre,
all to include in your movie. 48 hours later, the movie must
be complete. The 48 Hour Film Project's mission is to
advance filmmaking and promote filmmakers. Through its festival/
competition, the Project encourages filmmakers and would-be
filmmakers to get out there and make movies. The tight deadline
of 48 hours puts the focus squarely on the filmmakers — emphasizing
creativity and teamwork skills. While the time limit places
an unusual restriction on the filmmakers, it is also liberating
by putting an emphasis on "doing" instead of "talking."
At the Kickoff Event,
each team will draw the genre for its film out of a hat.
In addition, a character,
prop and line of dialogue will be announced and must appear
in each film.
$10 general admission
for each screening; cash only. Available one hour before
showtime.
