Could you make a film in only 48 hours? I could not, but it appears many can–or at least can try. The 6th Annual 48 Hour Film Project is a different breed of contest best explained by its trailer. But for those of you who would prefer to read:
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.”
