48 Hour Film Project: Savannah June 5, 2010
Posted by 16x9 in : Blog , comments closed
THE 48 HOUR FILM PROJECT’S 2010 WORLD TOUR HITS SAVANNAH ON JULY 9TH – 11TH
Savannah filmmakers to compete in world’s largest timed filmmaking competition; Registration begins June 1st at www.48hourfilm.com/savannah
Savannah June 2nd, 2010 — The 48 Hour Film Project, the world’s largest timed filmmaking competition, today announced that its 2010 tour will tear through Savannah on July 9th-11th challenging Savannah filmmakers to complete the entire filmmaking process – from writing and casting to shooting and editing – in a mere 48 hours.
Savannah is one of a record 80 cities worldwide to be included in the 48 Hour Film Project’s expanded 2009 tour, which will include the first-ever local contests in such far-flung cities as Beijing, Lisbon, and Mumbai.
Savannah filmmakers will join a record 2,500 filmmaking teams worldwide—totaling 35,000 people—expected to take part in the competition, relying on inspiration, adrenaline, and gallons of coffee to complete short films of up to seven minutes in only two sleepless days.
Participating teams will be given a genre, a character, a prop, and a line of dialogue that they must work into their piece. They will be responsible for putting together a cast and crew, and getting equipment and anything else needed to make a film/video. Films submitted even one minute late will be disqualified.
Films will be screened for the public on July 14th and 15th at Victory Stadium Theaters in Savannah, where the audience will select Savannah’s best film. The winners will then be in the running for top honors at Filmapalooza, the 48 Hour Film Project’s annual awards event honoring the year’s top films, which will take place at the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) Show in 2010. Films will also compete to be among 14 films to be screened at the Cannes Film Festival’s Short Film Corner in 2010.
This is the 48HF Project’s 2nd year in Savannah. Savannah was the first and only city to have all teams submit their films in before the deadline in 2009.
“While the tight deadline may seem like an obstacle, ultimately it places the emphasis on creativity and teamwork, and gooses participants into making their films rather than just talking about them,” said Tyler M Reid, Savannah producer for The 48 Hour Film Project. “More importantly, it breaks down barriers by allowing anyone in Savannah with a free weekend, a video camera, and boundless creative energy to experience the fun, exhilaration, and satisfaction of producing a fully-realized film.”
Since its 2001 launch in Washington, D.C. by filmmakers Mark Ruppert and Liz Langston, the project has become a global cultural phenomenon, with a total of more than 130,000 participants producing nearly 9,000 short films. An archive of past films can be found at www.48.tv.
“The fact that we continue to expand to new cities every year confirms that the project has truly struck a nerve with filmmakers and audiences around the world,” said Langston, co-executive director of The 48 Hour Film Project. “We’re thrilled to be returning to some of our old stops, as well as introducing the tour to new cities in 2009.”
