“Action” and “That’s a wrap” all in 48 Hours

300508_theatre.jpgSo are you the next Quentin Tarantino? Kevin Smith? Akira Kurosawa? Well you’ve got two days and seven minutes of screen time to prove it.

The 48 Hour Film Project is happening next weekend, beginning on Friday, June 6th. Filmmaking teams are assigned a common character, a common prop, and a line of dialogue that must appear in the flick. Then the teams have 48 hours to make a short film, which will be screened at the River Oaks Theatre June 11th and 12th. That’s right, you have 48 hours to write, produce, film, edit, and all the other good stuff that happens behind the scenes in the world of movie making.

Think you and your team has what it takes? Get registered and get rolling. Not so good around the camera? Not a problem. Go check out the screenings at River Oaks Theatre (while it’s still there ) on the 11th and 12th. Tickets start at $9. You never know, you just might be watching Harvey Weinstein’s next big filmmaker.

For complete information, rules, and registration, visit The 48 Hour Film Project website here.
